Comments regarding Costco Wholesale

Be forewarned if you order bulbs from Costco. You may not get what you wanted...
I ordered 150 Ice Follies daffodils from Costco last fall. I had also happened to have already ordered 250 of the same daffodil from a speciality bulb vender, however, when i saw Costco had the same bulb for less money, I ordered from them too. We planted all 400 bulbs at the same time. All bulbs from both vendors were mold free and good sized with very few rotten ones (happens to all suppliers)
This spring the 250 from the bulb supplier came up true Ice Follies. Of the 150 bulbs from Costco, there are 6 different daffodils blooming and not a single one is actually Ice Follies. It's either the Costco buyer assumed every white daffodil is the same, or what you were really getting is the seasons remnants and that's why they were cheap. I'm not against getting a discount on bulb varieties but if you advertise the bag holds just one type of bulb, that's what you should get.

I have also ordered crocus and muscari from Costco. These were very basic bulbs, and they have done just fine.

I have bought perhaps seven plants from costco and only one so far has stayed beautiful. The rest has either died or did not grow as expected. Two most disappointing ones are the bare root roses (never really took) and the hostas (they were tiny--not at all majestic as described on the packaging). The one plant that has survived is an indoor ZZ plant. The reason I'm giving them a neutral review is because they have an unbeatable return policy--they'll take back the dead plants.
