What customers say
Consumers are captivated by the exceptional quality and unique coloration of the Double Picotee Bouton de Rose when it successfully blooms. The resulting flowers are consistently described as stunning and true to image. However, the core challenge lies in reliability; many gardeners report inconsistent germination or slow development from the tubers upon arrival. While the final aesthetic payoff is high, the initial uncertainty regarding successful sprouting impacts the perceived value and ease of cultivation for some buyers.
