Spring-flowering bulbs which are already established in a garden,
start their new growth cycle by making roots well before September. They
don't rot on account of that early start. September, October and
November are the traditional time to plant dry bulbs.


I'm ordering a few from R A Scamps this year, having been encouraged to
do so by a speaker in the spring who extolled the virtues of this
nursery for bulbs for exhibition quality flowers.
Thought I might buy one or two from the money I saved ordering the rest
from Parker's wholesale catalogue!

They are expensive, well some about £3.00 but you probably get what you
pay for so I shall buy one or two of the most scented.
Just hoping they don't smell like Paper White, in which case as I shall
plant them in pots, they can make great birthday or raffle prizes!
