You can plant in the fall (recommended as bulbs from growers arrive freshly dug and establish well underground b4 spring) OR spring (when you can find more varieties).

You can order 'Stargazer' from so many bulb suppliers. Just avoid Michigan Bulb, Brecks, Jackson & Perkins, and any other companies with "specials" that seem too good to be true!

Best of luck and happy fall or spring planting!

Thank you for your response, Riz. I have them ordered and will get them in the garden as soon as they arrive!

I have NO problem ever with bulbs from Brecks. The other 2 I agree with, they are bad. Spring Hill is bad which is a bit odd because they and Brecks are almost across the road from each other and commonly owned. And its way better to plant them in the fall.
