Janis Ruksans bulb order

If you are considering joining the group bulb order from Janis Ruksans' bulb nursery in Latvia, please contact John Gilrein ASAP:  base_camp@verizon.net or 315-492-0844.

Find details about the group order in the February newsletter or this blog post: http://acnargs.blogspot.com/2008/01/bulk-bulb-order-from-janis-ruksans.html

Carol Eichler commented on that post:

Here's a great resource for finding images of bulbs from Ruksans catalog (image pages from the Pacific Bulb Society): http://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/PhotographsAndInformation/ You'll still have to do additional homework to figure out hardiness (Ruksans book, a good map, etc.). Then there's trying to determine if our summers work for a particular bulb cultivar considering it may be too wet here. That might be a little hit and miss. Have fun everyone!
