Re: importing bulbs!

Re: importing bulbs!
Please count me too in the final list. Munirkhabbab wrote:Just talked to the lady at Anglia Bulbs and they said that they will start accepting the order from december 1st but they will dispatch in February!!!!!! So what do you guys say?
I think all the bulbs which are in their summer catalog can be planted in our spring e.g. nerine, gloriosa, hedychium can be all planted in february here.

Re: importing bulbs!
I just checked the summer catalog and either their prices have gone too high or there is some problem in the catalog. E.g Nerine Stefani was 5 bulbs for 5 pounds last year but now no bulb quantity is mentioned and price is still 5 pounds which is strange. Same problem with gloriosa lily etc. I have emailed the lady about this problem and hope will get response soon.aykhan wrote:Looks like we already have enough people to make the shipping cost tolerable So Khabbab is the next step inboxing you whatever everyone wants from that site?
I am afraid i cannot buy gloriosa lily 3 pounds for one bulb and so on. Have you guys checked the prices of summer catalog? Do you find these okay?

Re: importing bulbs!
yes Khabbab you are right 3 for 1 is too expensive and this year Nerine is still 5 for 5 but I was more interested in Glory because I already got Nerine from van meuwan, I will try to find some other plants from their list

Re: importing bulbs!
Well I am personally sure about Tulbaghia fragrans, gloriosa lily, Polianthes (Tuberosa) double I have seen them blooming in lahore. I think crocosmia can also flower here but no experience yet. All crinum, amarcrinum and belladonna will grow good here. I have also seen white hedychium flowering in lahore so it can also grow good and so other hedychium (they need lots of spcace).rabia wrote:Khabab would you please guide us ( at least me)what we should buy?I dont have much experience of growing imported bulbskhabbab wrote:Everyone, kindly inbox my your order detail from angliaBulbs, we will make the order in a few days.

Munir, kindly explicitly mention which bulbs you want to buy and in which number. I do not know your budgetmunir wrote:
