All: Please read this post in its entirety prior to ordering so we will have no confusion and your boxes can get out to you quickly.  It will make my job a bit easier.  This is another large BX.

As always: A big thank you to our donors for their generosity.

*This BX will be open for orders until Tuesday, October 15 at 9:00 p.m. PST*

Standard rules apply for this BX:

Kindly review the list below and email me with your request(s) at bulbexpbs@gmail.com.
I will send a simple acknowledgement of your email.  Should you not have a response from me within a day or so, please resend.

Be sure to include your full name and current address and PLEASE advise if you have moved recently so I may note.

Bulbs are $3 each.  Many of these are only one share and in short supply. Again: some of the donors have sent me only one share of some things.  I would like to temper expectations.

This will be a lottery (however, if you did not receive something you were especially keen on last round, kindly advise and I will try to assure some accommodation. Also, if there is something you really are looking to receive, it helps for me to know this as well.)

You must be current in your membership and you must be up-to-date on BX/SX charges. If you are uncertain, feel free to check with Jane McGary or Arnold Trachtenberg.

KINDLY NOTE:

Orders should be paid upon receipt through the PBS website at:
https://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/pbsforum/index.php?page=BXpay

Please be sure to reference the BX number above (498) when paying as this helps us with accounting.
You are still free to send payment via check if that is your preference.

No orders to anywhere but the US and (sometimes) Canada can be entertained at this point.  We cannot furnish the appropriate phyto docs to other countries.

Thanks, Bridget

Kindly keep your eyes peeled for the post listing US BX 498 in the next couple days.  
Thanks, Bridget

All:

The donation window for the next 2024 US BX is now open until October 5, 2024 (if you need additional time, kindly advise). Please read below carefully, thanks!

I am ready to accept donations of clean, healthy bulbs at this time.  I am not requiring donors pre-package the donations in ready-to-go packets; I find it easier and more effective to do this myself according to demand and realize not everyone has time to sort and separate, other than species/ssp.  I will need you to label the bag or box to easily identify the bulbs.

Each donor will be credited the postage for the donation or a minimum of $5.

Feel free to include comments or instructions for your donated items, most of us need some help with new items to our collections.

Kindly send your donations to me at:

Bridget Wosczyna
731 Furnace Road
Morgantown PA 19543

Please be sure to send me an email advising that you have sent the bulbs so that I may keep an eye on my mailbox.

This notice will  be mailed out to the PBS list as well.

Email me at bulbexpbs@gmail.com with any questions.

Thanks in advance!
Bridget

Bulbs are $3 each.  Many of these are only one share and in short supply. Again: some of the donors have sent me only one share of some things.  I would like to temper expectations.

This will be a lottery (however, if you did not receive something you were especially keen on last round, kindly advise and I will try to assure some accommodation. Also, if there is something you really are looking to receive, it helps for me to know this as well.)

All:

I am getting the BX together and will be posting the list on Wednesday or Thursday.  I have already received several donations and believe I have heard from everyone who intends to donate.  If you have not gotten a donation together but had intended to, please know that I already have plans for another BX in early October, so do not rush if it is inconvenient at this time and if your bulbs are safe to wait until then.

As usual, we have a nice list on offer and I wanted to assure everyone has an opportunity to know the list is coming so you may keep an eye out.

Thanks!
Bridget

All, the donation window for the next 2024 US BX is now open until August 30, 2024 (if you need additional time, kindly advise). I have had a few donations already and several more members ask if they may send bulbs to me, so if you have anything to share, please do so.

Thanks!

The donations have been coming in and I'm going to post the list this weekend, by Sunday evening, EST.
Thanks!
Bridget

All:

The donation window for the next 2024 US BX is now open until June 5, 2024 (if you need additional time, kindly advise). Please read below carefully, thanks!

I am ready to accept donations of clean, healthy bulbs at this time.  I am not requiring donors pre-package the donations in ready-to-go packets; I find it easier and more effective to do this myself according to demand and realize not everyone has time to sort and separate, other than species/ssp.  I will need you to label the bag or box to easily identify the bulbs.

Each donor will be credited the postage for the donation or a minimum of $5.

Feel free to include comments or instructions for your donated items, most of us need some help with new items to our collections.

Kindly send your donations to me at:

Bridget Wosczyna
731 Furnace Road
Morgantown PA 19543

Please be sure to send me an email advising that you have sent the bulbs so that I may keep an eye on my mailbox.

This notice will  be mailed out to the PBS list as well.

Email me at bulbexpbs@gmail.com with any questions.

Thanks in advance!
Bridget

We wanted to be sure to advise of the deadline for ordering from SA Bulb Company. 
Any and all orders must be sent to Bob Lauf by Monday evening, May 6 at 12 a.m. EST.  
Only current US PBS members are eligible to participate in the offer at this time.

Thank you!
Bridget
BX Manager, President

Dear All Current US Members:

PBS has an opportunity to order bulbs directly from The South African Bulb Company. This is the company from whom we ordered the wonderful amaryllid book and it went very well.

It is incumbent upon each member ordering to follow the below instructions precisely.

Member Bob Lauf has agreed to use his import permit to place a group order for US members at this time, keeping the matter above-board.  Bob has made orders previously and received his items speedily and in good condition.   We have a short window to make our orders directly through him.  We are exploring if we may be able to work something out for our EU membership at a later date.

We have decided this works best for everyone involved if we approach the order as outlined below. There will be no deviation from this protocol  

Please:

1.  Peruse the list attached (if you are reading this from the List, kindly go to the Forum post under the Bulb Exchange section to see the list)

2. Email Bob directly with your order. Include your full name and list of desired bulbs. Be very specific in listing your items.  Bob's email address is boblauf@att.net.  Any orders not sent to Bob directly will not be honored.  Continuity in the ordering is imperative.

3. Bob will send you the total you owe and you must prepay Arnold via Paypal prior to the order being made with South African Bulb Company.  The amount due will include the following: a prorated amount of the phyto certification (which is generally around $25 no matter how big the order will be, so it should be a few dollars for each ordering member), the prorated shipping costs for Bob to receive the bulbs (a group order will help offset these costs as well), the total price of the bulbs you order, the shipping to Atlanta, and the shipping from Atlanta to Bob.  Bob advises the shipping from South Africa usually runs a little less than the price of the bulbs ordered.  So, generally, you can expect your cost to run about double the total amount of the bulbs you are ordering.  As we all know, this is a good deal in that most of these bulbs are not available commercially and if you can find them online, they are very expensive.  

The prices of the items are on the offer list.  Upon Bob's receipt of the bulbs, they will be shipped to me for a normal BX distribution to members. I will include a slip indicating the additional postage you owe for the shipping from me to you. All BX recipients know those charges are inexpensive. Our Stamps account offers very competitive pricing: again, usually just a few dollars. 

You agree when you order and pay that you acknowledge that there is a risk that the bulbs may not be received. It is well-known that all customers take said risk when ordering anything from other countries.  PBS and Bob Lauf assume no liability should the items not make it to the US.  An additional risk is that the plants could be delayed in shipping or may be less than ideal when received.  Neither PBS nor Bob Lauf will make any refunds. We are all assuming this risk together. Bob has had very good experiences with receiving healthy plants quickly.  We are hopeful to have the same with our group order.  

You must be a current member to participate.

Uli, thank you for reaching out.  I am adding to the agenda.

Hello, Everyone, 

It is with excitement that we announce we have a new Bulb Garden Editor.  

Our Secretary, Emil Friend, has agreed to step into the post.  Emil has an extensive personal and professional background in horticulture and will bring a new and fresh perspective to our publication.  Emil will continue in his role as Secretary.   

We are very much looking forward to the next edition and recognize this is no small endeavor. It will be a little while until our next edition will be published, but in the meantime, we hope he will enjoy the process of putting it together.  

We would be remiss not to thank our former editor, Robin Hansen, for all of her prior work on the BG and wish her well.  

Thank you!

All: Please read this email in its entirety prior to ordering so we will have no confusion and your boxes can get out to you quickly.  It will make my job a bit easier.  This is a large BX.

*This BX will be open for orders until Saturday, April 6 at 9:00 p.m. PST*

Standard rules apply for this BX:

Kindly review the list below and email me with your request(s) at bulbexpbs@gmail.com.
I will send a simple acknowledgement of your email.  Should you not have a response from me within a day or so, please resend.
Be sure to include your full name and current address and PLEASE advise if you have moved recently so I may note.
Bulbs are $3 each.  Some of these are only one share and in short supply.
This will be a lottery (however, if you did not receive something you were especially keen on last round, kindly advise and I will try to assure some accommodation. Also, if there is something you really are looking to receive, it helps for me to know this as well.)
You must be current in your membership and you must be up-to-date on BX/SX charges. If you are uncertain, feel free to check with Jane McGary or Arnold Trachtenberg.

KINDLY NOTE:

Orders should be paid upon receipt through the PBS website at:
https://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/pbsforum/index.php?page=BXpay
Please be sure to reference the BX number above, this helps us with accounting.
You are still free to send payment via check if that is your preference.

No orders to anywhere but the US and (sometimes) Canada can be entertained at this point.  We cannot furnish the appropriate phyto docs to other countries.

Thank you as always to our current donors.  Be advised that any and all mistakes on spelling are likely mine.  If donors see an issue with their listed item, please feel free to chime in.

Flowers are white, minute and produced in profusion in spring. It was originally distributed as seed in an early PBS BX. Has been a charming undemanding species in full sun and gritty soil.
