nice do they deliver to Pakistan and what about the quality of bulbs, the Daffodil I mentioned was the Pancratium maritimum do you know if its available locally or any other source?

Don't know if they ship to Pakistan. Probably not. I might be going end of September and will be purchasing many for myself. They are usually 10 bulbs per type and if you want we can share the bulbs half half and the cost. This way I too can get more varieties at half the cost.

Agreed not a bad option but do share the final list and the cost before finalising the purchase please and do you know any source of Pancratium maritimum (sea Daffodil)?

the cost will be further divided, keep us in the loop for your plan in September and the purchase, you can also PM us the cost (mode of payment) and the purchase details (list of Daffodils)

I think in the end there will be a lot of buyers. I'll purchase the good ones and then let everyone know the price per bulb. I will likely need only 4 of each so likely there will be 6 extra bulbs per type. I however am lousy at shipping so someone can assist me for that for non-Lahori members. Lahore members can pick up. You can trade also if you have something I'm untested in. Will let everyone know early October then.
