My experience with Van Bourgondien is not with /Arisaema/, but I have had=bad luck ordering the unusual varieties from them.

I ordered the pink /Convallaria/ which is much more expensive than the =the white, but all of them grew into white-flowered plants.

When I ordered /Lilium martagon/ I got small dried up bulbs which behav=ed like scales in the garden.  All of the /L. m. album/ were pink/purple =when they finally bloomed years later.

I no longer order from them even though I find very enticing new things=in their catalog.

My question for them is, have the grown them through a full year successf=ully, including a full dormancy cycle, or are these imported directly fro=m India? What can we expect of you? Eager Arisaema-L members want to know.
