NEW! While in Holland this year, we noticed that a lot of the villages in and around the bulb district were making natural plantings in the grasses along the sides of the road.

What was interesting about it was that the bulbs were not all blooming at the same time. The species were varied so that something was in bloom from early February until late June. They left the grass long and natural, and just trimmed around the edges where it was planted.

The first blooms were delicate Snowdrops in February followed in March by Crocus and early Daffodils. In early April, the Hyacinths and early Tulips bloomed. In May, some of the late Daffodils and late Tulips, and in June, the Alliums and Irises, which were quite spectacular!

We have selected a group of varieties and species to provide the same effect in your garden. The different flower shapes and colors are a guarantee for a festival of color next spring.

Bulb sizes range from 5 cm. for the smallest Snowdrops up to 12 cm. for Tulips, and larger for Hyacinths, Daffodils and Alliums. They are all top size and will provide a succession of color.
