Vossner , I too am awaiting some sales, eflowergarden has nice savings right now in the classifieds. http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/1054063/

I love his bulbs from either of his companies Touch of Nature or eflowergarden.

I am a huge fan of Brent and Becky, as well as Van Engelen or John Scheepers, and have been very happy with McClure and Zimmerman. Sorry about your bad experiance with V.E. Old house is a nice source, but most of the tulips are our of my price range. I also ordered a few narcissus that looked interesting from WFF this year as well as a couple of tulips. I always look to Buggy crazy for lilies and for some nice narcissus and a few speciality bulbs that only she seems to have at a reasonable price.

I have ordered in the past from K.van Bourgondien & sons, but limit it to certain cultvars that I have had trouble finding at my other favorite sources. They have a clearance going on now for a few good things. I had forgotten to order more of an old favorite called Tulipa Eye Catcher, so I just put in an order for it plus some others that I wanted more of as well as one new one for me called Black Hero. I am happy with their spring bulbs, but avoid the rest of their products generally.

I don't do box stores, but I will shop at small independent garden shops though mostly I order via on line catalogs.
