Have you ever gone to Bluestone's big spring clearance sale? It

worth the 45 minute drive.

I see that they have fall bulbs on sale on their website. I'm in Zone
6a -
would I plant them now or keep them cool until fall and plant them
then?


They may not ship until it is appropriate planting time in your area. I
would guess that they are just reselling imported bulbs like everyone
else.
You might send them an email and ask. I generally plant spring blooming
bulbs in my zone 6 garden starting in October.

Thanks, Vox. I'm assuming they are on sale because they are leftover from
last fall. If that is the case, I wasn't sure whether they had a chance
of
surviving to bloom next spring or not (yes, I can be patient but don't
want
to waste my money or effort!).

You still might call or email them. I have done both and dealt with them in
person. They all seem very nice and willing to help. If they are
left-over, you could ask them for advice and also see what their guarantee
is like.
