With over 1000 different bulb items in our inventory list and a large,wonderful country with endless climatic situations where the bulbs might be asked to perform, we thought it might be helpful if you had the opportunity to contact your favorite 'geophyte' organization to help answer additional questions you may have or fine-tune your gardening information.
Plus, there are businesses and organizations that believe as we believe...leave the world better than it was when you were here! This includes living a greener lifestyle, saving the bay and other waterways and doing what we can to help Mother Nature and all she oversees! We thought you might like to personally thank these folks, too.
