Same deal as last year, but seems to have been released a bit earlier this year at the start of autumn, so you don't have to be in a mad panic to plant them in the ground before they sprout!

Showbag contains:

10 Daffodil Yellow
20 Freesia Mixed
50 Ranunculi Mixed
25 Muscari
50 Sparaxis Mixed
50 Anemone Mixed
25 Ixia Mixed
10 Dutch Iris Acapulco

A total value of $83.00 at a very special Show price.

You can get this show bag in three ways:

  • In person at 470 Monbulk Rd Monbulk VIC 3793 - 8.30am-4pm Monday to Friday and 10am-2pm Saturday, excluding public holidays See FAQ
  • In person at the Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show - 16-20 March 2016
  • Delivered - $9.50 delivery fee, as long as you don't include large items. Note however:

A $4.00 Quarantine Inspection Surcharge applies in addition to the Delivery Charge for orders delivered to Tasmania, Northern Territory and Western Australia due to the increased complexity of quarantine requirements.

If you're not familiar with the company, their bulbs are bigger and healthier than the ones you can get at Bunnings or Aldi.

If you're buying online, remember to go through your cashback provider for a tiny cashback.

      Is there any way to get bargain/free tickets for this show?

  • anonymoususer on 11/03/2016 - 15:21

    Is it pack of seeds? Any idea how much time it takes to get the actual flowers after you plant the seeds? And do we get flowers all over the year or just in specific season?

      They are bulbs (think garlic) in different sizes. You plant them in the ground in autumn and they come up in spring. You can leave them in the ground and they will multiply over the years.

      Edit: Or you can plant them in pots.

      Edit 2: Here's what they look like

        Thanks mate. Appreciate details.
        so after fall season do we leave them as it is and they will flower again next Autumm/fall? Or after first flowering in fall their life end?

          Some bulbs like tulips need to be lifted in warmer climates like Sydney and stored in the fridge before planting, but the varieties included in this offer can be left in the ground. I have most of the above varieties in Sydney and they multiply well - with the exception of the Ranunculi which seem to have disappeared….

          They will poke their leaves through the ground in late winter and flower in spring year after year. Some flower early spring, some late spring.

          You can pretty much just leave them and forget about them, then start watering when they pop up. After flowering, feed them so that the bulbs get fat and have enough stored energy for the year ahead.

          The gardenexpress website actually has growing guides for each of the varieties. For example, dutch iris - click on "Planting and Growing Guide". Tells you when to plant, how deep to plant them.

          They will also send you the information with your order.

          @moocher: In some of the houses I have lived in , Daffodil have been planted in lawn or under the clothes line. They were left in, year apon year, giving a host of yellow daff,,, sorry about the school drill poetry extract. But, it is some joy with bulbs flowering year after year. The daffodils popping up in lawns is always a treat. And I don't have to mow as often.
