Is it possible to keep the bulbs in a cooled cell? Or how do the
customs/*phyto store them, cause here we have had some problems this spring
with tropical rhizomatous plants, some of them died, and they were very
expensive...

You may reply privately if it is not soo public...

Thank you for your attention!
