Does anyone have any information about this address? I emailed him, but unfortunately received no answer :-(
Private botanic garden
Jan Jílek
Hrabenovská 565

.... Eugenijus Dambrauskas "Augis Bulbs" doesn't seem to be offline either :-(

While there are people who have had success in contacting and receiving seed from these sellers, there are sadly many who have had no reply at all! It is a question of the buyer's attitude to risk, I fear!

I have also looked Augis bulb site all summer, but it is down, and I thought that he just doesn't sell this year.
In previous years I have gotten my orders from him all very well (when he had website on).

If you do succeed in ordering from Jilek do not send money in advance. I ordered from him regularly and without any problems for many years. I always paid after receiving bulbs/seed. Sometimes I would receive extra material free of charge and I always felt I had a friendly relationship with Jan. Then a few years ago he was quite unwell due to a relapsing fever following Tick bites. When I ordered from him the following year I felt sorry for him assuming that his illness would have created cash flow problems so when I placed my order i paid in advance. I never received the order and he has never replied to numerous communications since then.
