Hi,

Where is best for cheap daffodil bulbs? Has anyone tried the pound shop ones? I'm looking to brighten up my allotment next spring.

Thanks
I love MSE freebies and comps. Thanks posters

    Lidl's bulbs came in last Thu at my store, loads and loads of choices inc. daffs.

    I like Wilko's bulbs, but I would say that last year I think a few packets of the tulips had been mislabelled as I had a few surprises!

    If you want a lot and are not fussed about varieties B&Q have large nets of bulbs on special offer at two for a tenner.

    That is good! I checked B&Q and they were 3kg bags in the offer.

    I bought the Lidl ones last year, a fair number where either small or just soft & squidgy

    A few weeks later I found same, for less, in Wilkinson's

    My advice is wait a bit, do not be too hasty
