These are not full grown plants. They are bulbs / root systems to be planted, that will grow into the plants pictured.

Bulbs are often shipped dormant and can take anywhere from 1 month to the next growing season to sprout. If you wish to see a quicker turnaround, I suggest buying a plant that is already growing.
