Howdy bulb lovers,

All orders are Pre-Orders. New Dahlia & Summer Bulb pre-orders are expected to be dispatched late October / early November.

We’re smack bang in the middle of our hectic Summer bulb harvest (yes, still out playing in the mud! 🧑🌾). Potatoes wrapped up around late July, and Dahlias/Summer bulbs wrapped around late August - now it’s curing, sorting, grading, counting, and packing your wee box of goodies (sometimes not so wee!).

Thanks to the 20,000+ Dahlia/Summer pre-orders so far, we’re dispatching Dahlias/Summer bulbs from now through late November.

During our frantic dispatch months (Aug–Oct) we pump out 300–400 orders a day, mostly in the order received. The exception: some varieties are harvested later than others - if your order includes those, it’ll head out a little later.

What you ordered Dispatch timing
