Sorry, Scarlet, but I've only a vague idea where they are now and if I dug something up it would probably be montbretia! I'll dig some up next spring and put them in a bucket so I don't lose track of them.

I've bought some Replete from Morrisons today - half price. £1 for 10. Can't compete with your list, Scarlet. They should look amazing when flowering.

That's where I got the replete from...the rest were from Wilkos and I did an order online - dutchgrwown bulbs - I was amazed with the quality.


Wish I was near a Morrison's now Big Grin

I have a couple of tubs with some daffodil bulbs from last year as well as a 5kg bag of yellow trumpet daffodils, hanging in the garage, I bought them in the Range, can't remember the price but must have been reasonable, I also have a couple of plastic mesh home delivery boxes which I intend using for planting out some of the daffodils, hopefully making it easier for storing next year
