Brent and Becky's bulbs and Colorblends both great places for bulbs!

There's also Spring Hill Nurseries.

I really like Van Engelens. I have ordered from them for the past 10 years and have been 100% happy. Everything blooms the following spring. I also had ordered from Blooming Bulb and was happy with my order. Happy shopping Cindy

jmc,

David Burdick has a good selection of lesser known varieties.

Odyssey Bulbs is another. http://www.odysseybulbs.com/

Last year I ordered tulip bulbs from Brent and Becky's, American Meadows, and tulips.com and almost every bulb I planted came up; the only ones that were in questionable condition when I got them were the Paul Sherrers, which looked moldy. On the other hand I placed an order with Michigan Bulb and they couldn't or wouldn't fill it in a reasonable amount of time, and canceled the whole order. -_- I found out after trying to order from them that they have a bad reputation.

Brent and Becky's is a great company with fair prices. Avoid Michigan Bulb, Spring Hill and Brecks: They may be cheaper but the quality is poor. Check ratings at gardenwatchdog before you buy.

I second the suggestion for Van Engelen for all kinds of bulbs, or try their sister company John Scheepers if you want a smaller quantity. I add more bulbs every year and they're always nice quality with good results.

Brent and Becky's!

I agree with everyone

I've started moving toward Colorblends over Van Engelen when possible. Last fall I ordered the same amaryllis from both and some of the same tulips. Colorblends gave me bigger bulbs and more dramatic blooms. I wish CB would list the variety names in their blends but I have not once been disappointed.

I ordered alliums from Netherland Bulb co. and was literally stunned with the size, and quality of their bulbs. They are up and budding now. I can't say the same about VE's alliums in the past. I haven't ordered other bulbs from Netherland but have heard they are good and no one mentioned them

happy planting!
