Was I ripped off?

15 years ago

Hi-- I just received a blackberry lily bulb from a mail order company that I've never ordered from, and I was rather shocked at how small my bulb is. I paid $13.95-- based on the picture, does it look like I got my money's worth, or was I ripped off? Thanks.

I would say yes, a complete rip off, unless the named "Freckles" variety is rare, as to which I have no clue. Someone had sent me seed a few years ago, which I had wintersown, and they germinated like gangbusters. Cost? .60Â¢ for postage. Sorry...

Whiteflower Farm by chance? If so, that's the one reason I don't order from them; toooooo expensive...
