Please help!!!! Desperately looking for Abigail Tulips

Cincinnati, OH

I am so tired of looking for these and I am desperate now.

I am going to be Godmother for my neice, and I would like to give her family some bulbs of her name. I am wanting to get 50 Abigail Tulips, and 100 Jeanne d'Arc Crocus(no problem finding these). I would settle for 25 and 50. I am desperate. Van Engelen is completely sold out, no one else can guarantee that I wll get them by the end of next week........Any suggestions? Please, little Abigail Jeanne needs your help.

ooops... When you look up the Abigail tulip in plant files, this vendor's link appears

Have you called the places that won't guarantee delivery by the end of next week? I've had good luck getting things quicker than the web site or catalog says I will if I call rather than communicating online.

Nature Hills has them, which you probably already knew. You could also try calling The Bruce Co. of Wisconsin. It's a store, but they take orders over the phone. I have a few too many Angelique. Wish they were Abigail and I'd help you. Good luck!

Were you successful, kaykay?

Yes, actually, after alot of phone tag, I did manage to get 18 of the bulbs, and that will be a great amount for my idea. I won't be able to give my "set" to all the relatives, but most of the immediate family will have some.
This is the verse that I am going to use, I think:

A wee bit of heaven drifted down from above, a handful of happiness, a heart full of love. The mystery of life, so sacred and so sweet, the giver of joy so deep and complete. Precious and priceless, so lovable too, the sweetest miracle, Abby, is you. This living gift is being given to proclaim the love of Jesus Christ as it shines through Abigail Jeanne each day. Please plant these bulbs to remind you of our her Baptism Day!


What do you think?

Great idea! Glad you found some, even if not quite enough. Now if you're ever a Godmother again you have bulb-tracking skills.
