Did any order from Brent and Beckys 50% off sale?

Medford, NJ(Zone 6b)

I recieved my order today. WOW! I'm impressed. Bulbs are in excellent shape. Great packing and quick turn around time. I just placed the order a few days ago.

Only thing I found that could be a problem is the arum italicum and Drancunculus Vulgaris is sprouted a bit. We have SNOW and frezzing temps. right now. Suppose to be in the forties this weekend. I'll hopefully plant then. Not sure if it will harm them at all- worth a try. I of course expected this with ordering so late in the season.

If you haven't looked at their sale page, check it out. Worth the money if you can plant now. http://store.brentandbeckysbulbs.com/cgi-bin/bulbs2/index?id=K6FQQwHD&mv_pc=437

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

I bought quite a few but they seem to be mailing mine the slow way. They said they mailed it last week and that it will not get here till next week. A bit long!

Hempstead, TX(Zone 8b)

i ordered a bunch too. they should be arriving this week i can't wait.

Ellicott City, MD(Zone 7a)

I ordered MORE than I should have. OH WELL...they were on sale! I love ordering from Brent & Becky's. I ordered them on-line and received them very quickly (last week). I've also been pleased with their service.

The pre-cooled bulbs are an excellent idea for Southern gardeners or anyone who can't plant them immediately. Don't forget that bulbs can be stored in an unheated garage, or the vegetable drawer in your refrigerator. I'll have to wait until the snow has melted also to plant my bulbs. Holding them in "cold storage" will keep them at pre-cooled temperatures and thus prolongs the life of the bulbs. It will NOT hurt the bulbs.

Kristi - Drancunculus Vulgaris is from the Aroid genus that looks very intriging. Just don't get to close to it when it blooms next summer! It has the reputation of smelling like 3-day old "road kill"! Candee (Haighr) at D.G. also grows these Aroids. She was very generous and offered its seeds to many gardeners at D.G. You may want to compare notes with her.

Warrenton, OR(Zone 8b)

Dum Dum me doesn't see where to click for the sale page. Or is the sale over? I clicked on specials and web exclusives and both stated none available at this time. Should I be looking somewhere else on the site?
