We were impressed with the quality of the bulbs (and the price she paid.). They are now in the ground and we are anxiously waiting for them to come up. Of course we must lift them in the winter here in zone 7. |

I have been checking the website, off and on, to see when I could make an order for this year. The website is "up" and I wanted to get my order in early to get the varieties I had my eye on. This is a great company with excellent products, service, and reliability. I made my order and arranged for the bulbs be shipped out to me in late April. |

I ordered caladium bulbs on Tuesday night (the 12th) and my well-packed box arrived by noon on Friday! (the 15th)This was an order of nearly 200 bulbs! That is fantastic service from Florida to KY. I can't be more pleased. Thank you Bill! On April 6th, 2012, melody added the following: My 2012 order was a carbon copy of my 2011 order. I ordered 125 #1 bulbs on Tuesday and my box arrived by noon on Friday. These are huge,healthy caladium bulbs, heavy for their size. Some of them were as big as my fist! I'd never consider using another company. Thanks for great service!!! On April 30th, 2014, melody added the following: My 2014 order was a carbon copy of the wonderful service and great bulbs that I have come to expect from Caladium Bulbs 4 Less. Everything was carefully packed in a sturdy container and quickly shipped. Bill always checks the weather conditions before he sends out an order so we do not have any cold-snap surprises in route. I'm a loyal, repeat customer and plan to remain so as long as I'm gardening.

He's a great guy, very easy to do business with and he's always been a gentleman. I've bought from Bill for years now and have no desire to do business with any other caladium company. His bulbs are huge, true to name and I am a totally satisfied customer. Thanks, Bill! On May 11th, 2012, pirl added the following: Bill's huge box of caladiums arrived today. What a guy! The corms are huge and he sent a gift of some I've never had so I can try them. Bill is the best. The bulbs are fresh, huge, arrived very well packaged and ready to plant. I wish every company was as reliable as Bill. On May 11th, 2013, pirl added the following: Bill is just the best as are his bulbs. My 2013 order arrived yesterday and it's excellent, as always, with some extra bulbs in each package. I planted 16 today and will get the others planted ASAP. I'm looking forward to another dazzling display. Bill's bulbs never disappoint! Thanks, Bill. |

Positive | nitadrend (5 reviews) | On Apr 23, 2012, nitadrend Yorkville, IL wrote: In Spring 2011 I ordered Purple Majesty Caladium and they grew fine but remained tiny, about 3 inches. I called Bill for advice and he spent time explaining the difficulty that new variety was proving to be. He said to call him this spring and he would take care of things. I called and he sent out 15 huge bulbs that I chose, at no cost. I have found Bill to be very helpful, friendly and he stands behind his products. I am 100% pleased with Caladium Bulbs 4 Less. |

Positive | lisaaj (20 reviews) | On Jun 12, 2011, lisaaj Columbus, OH wrote: I decided to try growing caladium bulbs this year, and chose this company based on the reviews here on DG. I ordered 10 "Miss Muffet" and 10 Mixed Pink. They arrived on schedule and seemed very healthy. A month or two later, they sent the order again; when I asked about it, they said keep the bulbs, no charge- terrific! The bulbs are leafing out beautifully, and I'm sure I'll want to order from Caladium Bulbs 4 Less again! |
Positive | gbungart (1 review) | On May 31, 2011, gbungart Lake Mary, FL wrote: We have purchased caladiums from Bill for the past 3 years and are absolutely thrilled with the product. I also speak from first hand experience when I say that talking with Bill has been a very positve and informative experience. We try to stop by the warehouse on our many trips to Key West from Orlando. Bill has always been willing to meet us there to make it easy for us to pick up some new plants. In fact he even met us on Monday (Memorial day) when we were returning from our recent trip) and we were fortunate enough to get some of his last plants of this season. My wife and I both deal with the public on a daily basis and know full well how demanding that can be. Too many times the public will think they can imtimidate shop owners into giving away the store because they come up with some crazy complaint. In the long run the stores that cave into these unreasonable demands just cause the rest of us to have to pay a little more. I for one like it when an owner will defend themselves and NOT be bullied into correcting something that wasn't wrong in the first place. The person that said the Customer is always right has not worked with the general public in the past 50 years. For those FEW of you whinning about this...find another company. Caladium Bulbs for Less is a great group of people. They have a superious product and customer service to match. Thanks SO MUCH! My yard is beautiful!

They were carefully packed and shipped quickly, nice large bulbs and every one looks healthy and firm. Planted them out and drew every raccoon within five miles by including some bone meal .... but soon they were re-planted, sans bone meal.

A large flat rate box - very heavy - arrived. When I opened it my eyes almost popped out! It was just packed as full as can be with bulbs. It had to be hundreds...I planted about a month ago and it looks like every single one has come up. A huge mass of color. Just gorgeous. I would order again and again from here. I love this huge instant planting bed! |

Positive | RebeccaLynn (25 reviews) | On May 11, 2009, RebeccaLynn Winston Salem, NC (Zone 7a) wrote: In March I ordered 30 #1 Florida Fantasy Caladiums to be sent to me on May 15th. A few days before they were to be shipped, Bill informed me that the #1 bulbs of that variety, were not up to their standards, so he was shipping me 60 #2 bulbs at the same price. They arrived on May 16 in great condition, and they look as large as #1 bulbs I have ordered in the past from other suppliers. I am very pleased. On August 28th, 2009, RebeccaLynn added the following: My caladiums in August are absolutely beautiful! overflowing the flower pots on my porches with plants full of huge, heatlhy, colorful leaves. |
Positive | bleek (2 reviews) | On May 7, 2009, bleek Lawrenceville, GA (Zone 7a) wrote: Over the years I had bought a lot of Caladiums from various growers and I have to tell you that the ones I got from biLL were the most generous in size of all. I had ordered 400 mixed #2 bulbs and all bulbs were firm and healthy. Some of the early varieties had started to make a sprout, but that's OK, it's time for them since you can not stop Mother Nature. Packing was great and no bulbs were damaged in transit. I'll be back next year. |
