BX successes- TOW

Hi all:

Perhaps the greatest success of the BX is to count with the continuing
effort of Dell to distribute such an enormous quantity of material along the
year. It never stops and in it you can find from the more common material
useful for the newcomer to start with the easier species to incredible
rarities
nowhere else to be offered. And all for the same nominal price.
I have received many species both as seed and as bulbs and I can assure you
it is about the best available. It is almost normal to obtain a full 100%
germination and "bulb lawns" are practically the rule. This can only be
obtained from fresh seed and some sources particularly in California seem to
never stop. As for the quality of bulbs and corms it is equally superb and
only in two occasions I have problems although this of course has nothing to
do with the BX or PBS.
Listing all species I have received would take too long but I would
encourage those that still aren't to become members of PBS both to have
access to the BX and also to support this immensely successful effort of
Mary Sue, Cathy, Arnold, among others. Many thanks.

All the best for now
Alberto

ever from Cape bulbs.
