Frequently Asked Questions


DO YOU MAIL PRINTED CATALOGS?

At this time we do not have a printed catalog. Our entire product selection is exclusively online. Items that we are able to offer rotate frequently and many products are available for only a short time. Through trial and error with printed catalogs, we have found that the catalog selection is largely out of date by the time it reaches our customers and this can be frustrating not knowing which items are available to order or not. Additionally, the significant cost of printing and mailing heavy catalogs has a negative effect on our pricing. We would much prefer to have our customers enjoy an up to date selection of all products online at the most competitive price that we can offer! If you ever need assistance using our website or placing an order, please remember that you are more than welcome to send us an email to customerservice@dutchgrown.com.

DO TULIPS COME BACK EVERY YEAR?

Tulips are not perennials. They tend to come back some years but most don't if they return every year the energy of the bulb gets less and less. So the flower gets tinier every year. If you are looking for bulbs that are easy to naturalizing you’ve got to go for daffodils, muscari, allium, snowdrops or crocus.

Darwin Hybrid tulips are the strongest tulips in the industry. These tulip varieties will come back for some years.

Here you can find a link to all our naturalizing flower bulbs.

WHAT SHOULD I DO IF MY BULBS ARRIVE DAMAGED?

The likelihood of your shipment arriving damaged is very slim. However, if there is a problem on delivery, please contact customer service at info@dutchgrown.com on the same day that the order was delivered and a claim will be initiated with the carrier. You will need to retain the package(s) for a minimum of 7 days, as the delivery company may want to inspect the damaged product. We are able to reship replacement product after the delivering carrier has approved the damage claim. If we are currently out of stock of that item, we will gladly offer a substitute, or you may wait until the next shipping season for your area. We are not responsible for shipping delays or damage in shipment. We are not able to honor claims that are made more than 24 hours after receipt of the damaged product. After expiry of the terms mentioned above, customer is deemed to have approved the products delivered. For any concerns about your order, please contact us at customerservice@dutchgrown.com.
