What customers say
Customer feedback centers on two main themes: the spectacular results versus initial viability. When established, this Itoh hybrid earns high praise for its magnificent, fragrant yellow blooms and strong stems, justifying the premium cost. Gardeners describe thriving plants as true showstoppers. Conversely, many reviews express disappointment regarding the bare root stock upon arrival. Complaints frequently mention roots appearing dry or lacking adequate growth points, leading to failure to sprout. This initial lack of viability is the primary source of negative sentiment, despite the known need for patience during the multiyear establishment phase. The overall experience is a mix of ecstatic success and significant risk concerning the initial planting.
