I have a question?

(Zone 5a)

Can anyone tell me if there is a nursery in the UK that will ship bulbs to USA? I just love all the beautiful flowers you have there that I can't seem to find here, so I would appreciate any help that you can give.

I only know of a couple that will ship worldwide although I'm sure there are others. In light of the recent regulations which seem to be popping up everywhere it might be prudent to email or fax them first to see if they are still shipping to the US.

Paul Christians' Rare Plants and Potterton and Martin are in the GW, here are the links to their sites.

Baa I did stumble across Paul Christians Rare Plants right after I posted this message. I will check them both out and thanks again. I would love to find a source for all the Osteospermum Spoon Daisy plants, I usually see them in the UK but haven't as yet found one that will ship to USA.

Windsurfer, The actual name you should search for is Osteospermum 'Whirlygig'. The Osteospermums you want aren't fully hardy and die if they get too cold. . I recommend you get some fully hardy Osteospermums.

Mark I know that they are not hardy but I really like them because they are different as well as beautiful and I want to complete my collection. I have done a search but only get information and not a retail source.

MaVie they don't sell the spoon daisy seeds because they believe that they won't always be ture to the mother plant, thanks anyway.

Mark that it the very place that I feel in love with the spoon daisies but they don't give you a place that you can buy the plants retail, only wholesale business can pruchase plants from them. I have been trying to get my garden center here to pruchase them but they can only get what is offered to them and they are not offering many of the spoon varieties this year. Thanks for trying I do appreciate it.
