John Scheepers Beauty from Bulbs
The pandemic gardening upsurge caused us to sell out much earlier than usual, despite having imported considerably more flower bulbs this season. The soaring passion for gardening continues unabated, a good thing, but that may mean that we’ve sold out of your favorites. We do have a few remaining varieties available here and there. Refer to our AVAILABILITY LIST to find them quickly. We may also have a couple of units available by phone that are not available on our website. Give us a call at 860.567.0838. We're here to help you Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
All orders are shipping out within 48 hours.
Planting Your Flower Bulbs
As you all well know, flower bulbs should be planted when the garden soil has cooled down to around 55°F, after two weeks of sweater weather of 40°F nighttime temperatures. There’s often a killing frost or two prior to bulb planting time. Planting bulbs when it is too warm may inhibit mature root growth and yield wasted top growth. To trap the cold in the soil (not the warmth), no more than a 2” layer of mulch should be applied after the surface soil has frozen. Learn more HERE.
Thank You!
Thank you for planting it forward so that your families, friends and communities may find joy and solace in the beauty that you create in the world. Our gardens are a gift we give to each other, the bees and helpful pollinators. Beauty from bulbs is the art and soul of spring.
On behalf of the Ohms family, we thank you for allowing us to be part of your gardens. From the Netherlands to Bantam, CT, we work hard to make sure that the bulbs your receive from us are top-quality and top-sized: simply the best.
