Bulb suppliers

Posted by Peter sellers on August 24, 2025 at 7:37am

Large bulb planting job, trawled the net but many of the suppliers have poor Trustpilot reviews, those that come up ok their prices are excessive. Appreciate you get what you pay for but looking for some middle ground or do we go down the B&Q or garden centre route? Any suggestions?

    Have you tried wholesalers where local councils get their bulbs from for community planting projects such as Eurogarden imports , Gee tees bulbs u.k .

    I don't know how prices will compare with what you have already sourced but anything connected with horticulture right now prices are through the roof .

      Gee tee have a very good Trustpilot rating but the prices even after 15 % trade discount are just too much. Thanks anyway

      Thanks Ian, appreciated. Had a quick look and prices seem good, what"s the quality like and do they do anything off for trade?

        Quality of the bulbs is excellant. The prices are wholesale (Trade) as compared to their retail catalogue. They do produce a sale catalogue with reduced prices on some lines, later in the season.

        Massive price reduction compared to B & Q or garden centres,

        We have used them every year (spring and autumn) for the last 10 years and planted over 100,000 of their bulbs in that time.

    For a number of years I've used Farmer Gracy from the Netherlands free delivery for over £100 spent very easily done.  
    every bulb is packaged in paper bags, but for larger orders I find it annoying they divide them into many individual bags.

    nice range of bulbs & I love to wait for the sale too
