large scale daffodil planting source?

16 years ago

Hi Guys,

One of my clients wants me to do a large scale daffodil planting. I am wondering if any of you can recommend a good source that will be a better buy for me than going through a retail nursery.

The wholesale houses, that I used to order from when I worked at the nursery, tell me its too late for me to place a bulk order. The nursery ordered theirs last jan so I know its a little late but its getting to be planting time so I'd like to hunt them down.

Any Ideas?? thanks, deb

We did a late-season order of 4400 daffs from www.colorblends.com last year. Price was good, size, quality and customer service were great.

The big boxers and Costco usually have daffodils by the 100 pack for around $20. That's not a bad price. They might even be going on sale soon.

www.brentandbeckysbulbs.com An excellent source of both fall and summer bulbs and a wonderful on line catalog. Becky was recently a guest on Martha Stewart. They are third generation bulb growers in Gloucester, Virginia. Also many rare and unusual varieties at both retail and wholesale prices.

So far I've had good luck with their stuff. And their prices are great.
