"Scratch & Dent Sale" 40% discounted bulbs, limited supply!

Most of our fall harvest is done by hand with spading forks, but bulbs can still be bruised or lose scales during the digging process. Those bulbs are normally set aside during our pre-packing inspection and then later planted back into the propagation field for another year’s growth. Out of nearly 32,000 bulbs dug for fall shipping, about 10% are set aside for either cosmetic reasons or they were just not quite large enough when compared to the general harvest. In this sale group, you will find some of those cosmetically imperfect bulbs, but many of the bulbs being offered in this sale were deemed to be under size for shipping, even though all did flower this past season. All should flower next summer, except perhaps those that might have three noses, meaning they will put up three stems with maybe one flower, but you'll have three large flowering size bulbs the following summer.

If you don't require cosmetically perfect bulbs, but are happy planting smaller bulbs at a discount, this sale is for you.

Quantities are limited and all are packed 6 to a package. In some cases there are only 7 or 8 bulbs of a variety and you will receive all of them for the price of the 6. When they sell out, we are not going to whack bulbs with a hammer to make more bruised stock, so when they are gone, that's it for this fall.

Examples shown in photo are 'Holland Beauty' on the left, a large bulb that the stem pulled out through the side during harvest. In the upper right, the small 12/14 white bulb is a double nose 'Blackberry's Snack'. Lower right, we have a size 14/16 'Sumatra' that will produce 1 to 3 flowers next year.

Please note: No free bonus bulbs with this sale, as they are already reduced. Sale price reflects a savings of 40% from our regular priced bulbs. We have single 6-packs available that are not listed, which we'll use as substitutions if necessary. We will mail orders after November 15th or sooner if possible.

All bulbs are sold in packages of 6 at a discount of 40% from our regular retail price. Quantities are limited and there will be no back orders. Once they are gone, they are gone.

Again, no free bonus bulbs with this sale, but if you have other regular size bulbs already in your shopping basket of more than $50 and if there is room for an extra bulb in your box, we'll try to fit a bonus bulb in for you.
