It's that time of year again .... note from Susan and Co. at Pitcairn ....
"Just to let everyone know the webshop will be opening on the 1st April for orders. Busy at the moment getting everything ready for the opening and taking pictures of some of the newly listed items.
What's happening 2019
Please look around our shop at the wide range of rare bulbs available for ordering on 1st April.
Please note for new customers most bulbs are dispatched at the beginning of August with the later dormant bulbs and lilies dispatched in September.
The summer of 2018 was exceptionally hot and dry here in Scotland resulting in the bulbs flowering exceedingly well in this spring.
More and more of our bulbs are being planted in the open ground providing them with a natural growing environment, allowing consistent temperature and moisture throughout the growing seasons.
A lot of Crocus and Fritillaria seed sown in previous years has now come to fruition giving us a lot of new species to offer this year. However they are still only available in small quantities.
Here's hoping for a good harvest in the coming season.
Happy gardening to all our customers."
