Source for genuine british bulbs - especially daffodil
 

Can anyone recommend a reliable source for British bulbs especially native
daffodils. I don't want to plant a couple of hundred bulbs and then need to
dig them up again if they come up not as I would expect. You know the
problem of Spanish versus British bluebells for instance.
thanks
Davy

Try Googling on bulb growers in Cornwall. Many grow daffs only for the
bulbs.

Yes, I have also used Shipton Bulbs, and they were excellent.

Scamps is brilliant for a huge range of daffodils and narcissi. They
specialise in exhibition stuff but the catalogue is awesome.

They are in Cornwall I believe.
