Hi

English Bluebell Bulbs - Packs of 50 & 100 - Top Quality | eBay

Bulb sixe six, does this mean that they will flower in 2013 if planted this year, as you can get seeds, but they will take a few years?

I would expect the bulbs to flower next year - or at least some of them. No idea what Size 6 means!

[Thelma Sanders]

re size 6 etc - this usually refers to the circumference of the bulbs measured in cm

They should flower in spring, but Bluebells are better bought and planted 'in the green' if you want to be sure of them thriving.

Have they been legitimatly grown or ripped from the ground just to make a 'quick buck"? ? ?

I should proceed with caution. Cheers, Tony.

Who knows, ebay is a big business these days, no different from a garden center. Most of th plant sellers on ebay, are garden centers themselves. I dont have a car, so that is a good way for me to buy plants/bulbs/seeds.

I bought some from Morrisons today - 5 bulbs for £1. The pack claims they're the English species but the picture looks a bit like the Spanish ones. I'm hoping it was just a mistake and that they are the English ones. If they're the Spanish variety then I'll pull them out. I won't find that out till next year.
