Flowered beautifully

Dear Holland Bulbs

Hi there - I wanted to let you know that I’m extremely happy with the both the service that you provide and the product itself.



In January I had requested for an amaryllis bulb. This came promptly and well packaged - so I appreciate the great service.



I had ordered the bulb as a gift for my sister in law who is currently undergoing chemo. I had once read about how therapeutic it can be for people who are undergoing treatment, to have a project to do, especially one that deals with living things such as plants. Since she is not neutropenic, growing the amaryllis seemed like a perfect project.



On her birthday, I presented her with your bulb, and I also gave her a pot that could fit the bulb snugly. She was happy to receive it and absolutely loved the picture of what it would turn out to look like, and then became apprehensive as she claimed not to have a green thumb. But I told her that it was guaranteed to grow so she had to give it a chance.



I am thrilled to report that she actually did plant the bulb, and the fact that it didn’t need pre-chilling was key. And it’s growing beautifully! This has helped her to focus on something living as a project during this time.

Received quickly. Bulbs are large and look healthy. Been a bit too cold to expect much for growth so far, but one of three has a 1" leaf appearing. While the other two have no growth yet, they do appear as tho they are about to.

Gifts arrived on time, easy to plant, awesome results.
