Are there any GOOD places to order bulbs? (Tulips, daffodils)
After a few years of trying to order bulbs from catalogs and getting
VERY poor results, I went to gardenwatchdog and found that most EVERY catalog that I get has a ton of negatives from people complaining about moldy bulbs, mislabeled bulbs, tiny bulbs, and poor growth rates. Last year I planted a small patch of bulbs I got at my local Frank's, and they all grew beautifully this year. I have to wonder, what are these companies thinking? How is it that they are allowed to operate? Why doesn't a corporate officer for one of these companies say, "Holy cow, we have to DO something about our product quality!" Some of the companies are, but not limited to: Michigan Bulb Gurney's Breck's Dutch Gardens Brent & Becky's Bulbs Wayside It would appear that some companies are actually the SAME, they just start a separate "division" doing business as a different name, I would guess to try to hide their poor reputation? But then they still continue to perform poorly! The BIGGEST question I have is, where are the BEST places online to order bulbs? I'm mainly interested in Tulips and Daffodils (Narcissus). |
