Don't know what the rules are for a group buy, but considering organizing one from
http://www.edensblooms.com/page/424875052
Just rain lilies, not any other categories. You would have to PayPal me including the fees I get charged when receiving $ & pay for the shipping costs from me to you. AP would not be liable for any damages/loss/or bulbs that may not grow (same goes for me). I've purchased from Edens Blooms before, the bulbs come dormant, & usually small-medium sized. While it takes a couple weeks for them to ship the order, they are one of the few reasonably prices places online that I've found. Please contact me if you want to participate.

Also, if you are in a state that has restrictions on incoming bulbs, please don't ask to particate.

Jerry, if this is a no no please let me know/delete/lock topic. Thanks.

it's fine. In fact Id like to have some too.
Anything that save members bucks is okay!

Thanks Jerry, but it looks like we are the only ones interested.

I'm interested. I haven't clicked the link, but wanted to let you know I'm interested before you gave up on it.

I am interested too. How many people do they require to honor a group buy?

Y'all need to let me know what kinds/totals to see if this will be workable.

I really like the:
Prairie Sunset
Citrina
Lubuffarosa
Primulina

I have to read more about how they grow before I tell you how many I want.

As I'm reading about them - I noticed it's noted they are very toxic, just an FYI to everyone. I'm taking note so I plant them away from my kids and dogs.

Count me in Kat. I do not know enough about then to know what I want other than all of them.

I have this one.

Dan, I really like the dark colored throat of yours. Do they produce seeds?

magoo · « **Reply #12 on:** June 13, 2011, 03:29:11 PM »

Kat,
Sad to say, I don't know. Until I read this post, I didn't know they made seed. These seem to reproduce by growing more tubers. The bed the RLs are in has other plants growing higher and you do not see them until they flower. Do you have one like mine? Know the name?

Kat · « **Reply #13 on:** June 13, 2011, 05:32:46 PM »

Not all of them make seed, so if you've not seen seed pods before that isn't surprising. There are so many different types & I am unfamiliar with yours. So if you ever want to trade some, please let me know.

Is it safe to mail bulbs by 1st class mail? Can I pull bulbs now or should I wait a wait a few days ? If it won't kill the bulbs I'll put some in the mail tomorrow. I bought them at a local nursery (rip) about 5 years ago. Delores had two pots in flower. Both came home with us.

Kat · « **Reply #15 on:** June 14, 2011, 04:28:37 PM »

They should be fine shipped first class. Thank you!!!

Kat · « **Reply #16 on:** June 16, 2011, 06:46:59 AM »

Last chance to get added to my order (group buy) before I place the order in a couple days. Thanks.

I would like in also. There are some very pretty ones on there.
