Bulbs
I have "a bunch" of Size 13-15 Jack's Giant bulbs available. The numbers refer to the circumference of bulb in inches. These bulbs are normally $13.95 each.
Through May 18th I will offer these awesome bulbs to All Things Plants members for $8.00 each.
If you are interested in adding a taste of the Tropics to your landscape send me an email to: [email protected]
Bulbs will be shipped via Fed Ex Ground. Cost will be determined by how many bulbs you get and where I'm shipping them to. I can tell you that it is not my intention to make money on shipping, I just don't want it to cost me anything. These bulbs are not light. They probably average several pounds each!!

Happy Gardening,
Bill

I agree this is a great buy but also you couldn't buy from a better person and business. Bill is great and if you have any questions about what he sells just ask as he is great with that also

It looks like I can use the Post Office's Regional Flat Rate Box "B" for shipping up to four of these bad boys.

If you were selling these last February I would probably have bought 100 for our master gardener plant sale. It's too late in the season for that now, though.
