Wild Flower Bulbs

"In the Green" Spring 2024 Delivery

We are taking orders now for British Wild Flower Bulbs 'In the Green'.  'In the Green' Bulbs are lifted in  late winter/spring when the bulb is actively growing, in flower or after flowering when they are beginning to die back.  The amount of leaf or root growing from the bulb will be dependant on the species and the time it is sent out.  'In the Green' bulbs are freshly lifted to order, so please allow a little longer for delivery.  The bulbs will be lifted and sent out from late January/early February onwards through until April/May, depending upon the variety and weather conditions.  If your order consists of other items (seeds, plugs etc), these will be sent out straight away and the 'In the Green' Bulbs will follow separately as they are lifted to ensure they remain in the best possible condition.

Note:  Although the Winter Aconites, Double Snowdrops, Wild Cyclamen & Wild Tulips are not true native plants, they have long been naturalised and are found growing wild in various localities in Britain.
