Gabriel, I've had really good luck with Lowe's bulbs the last few years. I couldn't find Beck's wholesale, but did see Breck's wholesale- is that who you bought from?

I see mixed reviews on Holland Bulb farms and haven't tried them. A lot of vendors get poor reviews based upon poor quality perennials and plants, but do better with bulbs. Bulbs are easy to ship without damaging unlike other nursery stock, and less likely to screw up, LOL. A word of caution with lilies though, I'm careful about obtaining them from cheap Dutch sources because I have received virused bulbs in the past. Not a big danger unless you grow a lot of other lilies. I had the infection spread and got it under control, but still find an infected plant from time to time.
