Introducing

Flowers are not made by singing, "Oh how beautiful",                       and sitting in the shade. (Rudyard Kipling)

Please browse through this 2010 Season Catalogue to decide which bulb varieties you like,               then go to our order form page to enter your selections.

Spring-flowering bulbs are planted throughout March, April & May;                                         Tulips can be planted in May & as late as June.

As well as sourcing some spring-flowering bulbs from overseas, Blooming Bulbs contracts spring bulb growers all around New Zealand. However the stock comes into our packing shed at various stages of the season from late February though March & occasionally even later. So while we process your orders through our system as we receive them from 1^st February, some bulbs are not available till late in the season, which may delay despatch of an order. Do not hesitate to ring us if you are becoming anxious.

Bulbs can be somewhat capricious as a crop because they are affected by so many things: rain, sun, temperature, disease, viruses and indeed by demand and fashion. We put our Catalogue together in December, so unfortunately we cannot guarantee that we will always have what we show in the right quantities. As the bulb season draws on, we do run out of stock of some varieties & we will substitute these with bulbs of equal or greater value.

Most Spring Bulbs can be planted in March, April & May; Tulips are best planted a little later in May or June.

We store our bulbs in special crates that allow the air to flow around them. Additionally, we have two 20ft temperature-controlled containers here in our packing shed, so bulbs are held at carefully maintained temperatures for optimum development. These bulbs are ready for you to plant as soon as you receive them.

We also try to do our bit combating global warming by recycling boxes and tissue paper we gather from local businesses. Sorting is a bit of a nightmare but we feel it is worth it and hope you are not too disconcerted by some of the more novel packaging.

Happy gardening from Juliet, Lindsay, & the Blooming Team
