Garden bulbs
Great selection of bulbs available. Chose these to complement existing boarder plants. Can’t wait for them to come up next spring.

Look healthy
Bulbs look healthy but can’t say much more as they haven’t grown yet. Bought with other bulbs on offer so was quite pleased with the price.

Good product, poor ordering process
These bulbs were in good condition however obviously aren't up yet. Sadly B&Qs ordering service let me down badly though: I had placed, and paid for, two large orders for bulbs in their sale however only 3 varieties were actually available from one order and none from the other. Their customer service regarding one order was very proactive - the manager phone me first thing the next day to apologise and try to make good the mistake. I had no similar experience from the other store for the other order that had gone through though. I did receive prompt refunds so my message would be to be prepared for disappointment if ordering sale goods and accept that you may be refunded instead.
