I'm glad you appreciate my attempt to consider the issue. I always seem to try, but it's impossible to please everyone and you have no idea how many times I've shot myself in the foot trying to make sure that not a single person gets left. Add this to the list of times.
It's worth noting that many of the narcissus are blooming RIGHT NOW in East Texas and by the time the actual daffodil week comes, our blooms are long gone. So add my name to the list of people who will be out of that party. So as you see, this works in both directions.

I do feel like it's true that what we have is a pretty solid schedule. Trish and I spent many hours going through the information we have. Is it perfect? No. But it's probably pretty close.
This has caused some angst among the parties involved and I regret that. I should have just said that these are the dates and if they are too early or too late, then just do your best using what you have.

This complaint, despite its unfortunate wording, is a good example of the reason why products have a multi-paragraph disclaimer, trying to cover every possible scenario.
Really, at this point I'm pretty tired of the conversation. I feel like we're close enough on the dates, and I'm not inclined to do any more back and forth on it. I'm sorry that we weren't able to get everyone the dates they wanted.
