they are quite expensive but the sites I mentioned above are very cheap in comparison and another advantage is that your delivery cost will be divided among other members who will be purchasing from the same site

I will also start to compile the list and will let you know which bulbs are available for purchase

Great idea, bulbs/ corms multiply fast so members can split them even further so more varieties and more people can enjoy the same thing, one other thing is that we have to do some homework on permits such as phytosanitary certificate, customs duty etc before your friend can bring the bulbs to Pakistan to avoid problems.
well I think there will be no issues but I will try to get information on it because I brought bulbs earlier and had no problem, and I have also tried through cargo services they were also ok but I will have a look into it and let you guys know.
fingers crossed

wish list update

so far we have 4 members

Rafique: Gloriosa,Freesia,Coral Drop,Hosta

Farhan: Gloriosa,Coral Drop,Hosta

Tahir Khan: Coral Drop, Babianas

Hakraza: Gloriosa,Freesia,Coral Drop,Babianas,Sparaxis


According to this list we can drop Sparaxis. Hosta and Glorios are less in number so they are fine and for the rest three verities I have spoken to them and we can buy min of 25 bulbs and the rate will be accordingly so I think it’s a better idea to go for less in number and get all the three verities and for Coral drop we can buy 50 as all four of you wish for it
