I can provide specific cultural information for each variety. While my blog index offers plenty of details on various bulb types, feel free to reach out if you want more guidance or insights.

Red Charm Peony - order Peonies, Daffodils, Tulips, Crocus Red Charm Peony

You can order Peonies now for fall planting. They come in both single and double forms. The best place to plant them is in partial shade with some morning sun. Peonies offer a range of colors including white, blush, pink, coral, rose, and red. These are herbaceous peonies, meaning they die back to the ground during winter and reemerge in the spring. This cycle makes them a low-maintenance but stunning perennial addition to your garden.

Blushing Beauty Tulip - Tall, Single Late - order Peonies, Daffodils, Tulips, Crocus Blushing Beauty Tulip – Tall, Single Late

Now is the time to order Tulips. These need about 8-12 weeks of refrigeration before they are ready for planting. I store them in my walk-in refrigerator at a steady 45 degrees to ensure they are well-chilled before shipping. Blushing Beauty Tulips are particularly beautiful, with tall stems and a late bloom, offering a burst of color when many other flowers are fading. It’s a great choice for extending your garden’s tulip season.

Ice Follies - order Peonies, Daffodils, Tulips, Crocus Ice Follies Hillside

Daffodils, unlike Tulips, don’t need chilling. I will deliver them in the fall, and they can be planted once the rains start for easy, stress-free planting. Early varieties like *Golden Dawn* bloom earlier in the season, especially if planted sooner. Daffodils are resilient and naturalize easily, making them a perfect choice for low-maintenance gardeners.


You can order Peonies, Daffodils, Tulips, and Crocus today to get ahead of your fall planting. By ordering now, you ensure your garden will have an amazing display of blooms come spring.

Don’t wait too long to place your order!
