Shipping Details...
We ship our bulbs all over Canada using Canada Post. Shipping costs are calculated based on Canada Post's charges.
We ship our bulbs for fall planting (tulips, daffs and crocus etc.) from September 1st to Mid November each year. We ship our bulbs for Spring Planting (lilies, dahlias and glads etc.) from March 1st to April 15th each year. Some items sell out early.
Things to know...
When you receive your package of bulbs you will want to open the box right away to ensure that the bulbs do not sweat in the box. You should keep them in a cool, dry dark place, away from extreme cold or heat until you can plant them. Remember that while they are somewhat dormant; they are alive and would prefer to be planted as soon as it is time in your area.
We will put your order together with care and ship it to you with the intention that you will be very happy with your order when it arrives to you. We have built our business on the satisfaction of our customers repeat business and their referrals to their friends. In the unlikely event that you have a problem with your package when it arrives, please contact us within 7 days at bulborders@crgardencentre.com or the store, during store hours, at 250-287-7645.
We are happy to provide hardy zones and planting information. Having said this, we are located on Vancouver Island on the West Coast of Canada and specialize in West Coast Gardening. I'm sorry it sounds harsh but it is your responsibility to know how to plant in your area of Canada.
We ship our bulbs to Canadian addresses only. Because of import permits and import/export laws we do not ship into the United States or Internationally. Bulbs or Gift Certificates may be purchased internationally if they are shipped to a Canadian address. We ship mostly flower bulbs with some hardware and giftware items also being available. We do not ship roses or other plants that we sell in our retail nursery and sometimes highlight on our website.
