Douglas Hunt on May 02, 2014Your best bet (although I think the chances are slim) is to find a company that sells pre-chilled bulbs and hope that they have leftovers that haven't sold. You might try Brent and Becky's Bulbs, which I know does sell pre-chilled bulbs, but I have no idea if they would have any left at this point.Helpful Reply

Carole on May 02, 2014If you do manage to buy bulbs out of season, then be wary of how you store them until you are ready to plant them out. If you don't allow plenty of air circulation they can get mould on them and it may make them useless if the mould is bad. I bought some bluebell bulbs and stored them in a paper bag in the garage and after just a few weeks, they had blue mould on them and some of the bulbs had holes in the tops and seemed to have no weight or substance to them. If you store them be sure to check on them regularly and air them out occasionally to prevent mould growth.Helpful Reply
