    I've bought snowdrops and cyclamen from eurobulbs before, and was very pleased with them.  Keep an eye open for offers in newspapers and magazines too - they often  have "free" (ie pay p&p only) ones on offer in jan/feb

    I have bought a few plants for GW mag and just paid for P&P. I've planted a load of tulip bulbs in big pots with my tree lilies that I have split and repotted, at the moment I am very nervous in case I have killed them as there is no sign of anything coming up yet!!!



    I think my husband may ban me from this forum before long as it may cost him too much!!!!!!

    You'll soon get the hang of it all.

    Easy to get hooked too, just been looking at a Galanthus on E-bay at nearly £70, not that I could afford to buy it though.

    Not a good way to go Berghill. 

    I love to see a great drift of ordinary snowdrops. It gives me more pleasure than the minutiae of marks on petals.

    Tracey, non gardeners soon realise the benefit of spending on plants, a happy faced gardener image Also time spent on forum means no time to delegate jobs for OH image

    Ha ha, I like your thinking KEF, also OH has already said the garden looked lovely last summer and he can't wait to see it this summer, so I must have done something right ????
