The bulbs arrived in good time, and the camassias and White Triumphator have flowered well. One of the Mount Everst alliums is a purple one, not white as it should be, and the World Friendship tulips were all blind

Can't wait for these to appear again next year. Each bulb grew as expected, beautiful tall white flowers. Will be getting some more for other parts of the garden
