Snowdrops,
Aconites & Bluebells "In the Green"
from the Clare Bulb Company
Buying English Snowdrops, Winter Aconites
and English bluebells "in the green" is seen by many as a more reliable way of
achieving success than planting "dry" bulbs, i.e.. as one would buy and plant in the autumn. The bulbs we offer are naturally grown and lifted
under controlled conditions. We are very careful to ensure that no more than two
or three days
should pass between the lifting of the bulbs and their arrival at our
customers' address. This way the bulbs remain fully viable.
Bulbs in the green may be ordered
at any time during the year, although they are only delivered from early
February until May, the actual delivery time depending upon the weather in
the early part of the year.
Given that in most years there is a limited supply of native snowdrops and
bluebells, it is wise to order before the end of April . If ordering later than
that, please give us a ring, to check availability.
