You can order nearly 300 different bulbs, including some unusual varieties, and have them delivered directly to your home or club address.
They cost about half the price of bulbs at many garden centres, on other websites or on the High Street, and we can do this because we have no staff, premises, vans or glossy catalogues... Simply Tulips!

Thomas Dagg gave the field to Thornbury in 1546, so we tend what must be some of the oldest allotments in the country.
There are 120 allotments, and the Association has over 100 members. It organises social events such as the Summer BBQ, the Autumn Talk, the Christmas Meal as well as distributing monthly newsletters, running the Allotment Shop and offering discounts to some local retailers.
Gillingstool Primary School has a large plot which offers all pupils the opportunity to grow and eat their own produce.
Membership costs just a couple of pounds a year, and brings many benefits. You don't need to be a plot holder to become a member. We have discounted seeds, competitive prices on gardening items, guest speakers and visits.
If you would like to become a member, or be added to the waiting list for a plot, click the website link below.

Thornbury Squares meet at Manorbrook School, where we dance to a variety of music, socialize and have a great deal of fun. All ages welcome.
Why not come along and find out what it is all about or ring Ann (885058) or Sue (778795)for further details.
Our other evenings involve slide shows and talks. These are funded from the annual subscription of £12. The Christmas meeting is at an hotel with dinner and dance, and the summer event is often a Mystery Coach Tour to an out of the way pub.
Unlike when the Wine Circle began in the Seventies, home made wine is not often made these days, but some grape and elderberry wine is used at BBQs, and mulled wine at Christmas.
For more information, contact Dave Slocombe on Thornbury 413038.
We are always on the lookout for new committee members. If you're interested in youth involvement, we'd love you to join our stuctured support committee - but be prepared to be police checked.

For a truly inspirational outing you can do no better than popping along to the Olveston and Tockington Open Gardens day.
The garden trail lets you peek into the back gardens of some of the village's most interesting and inspirational green spaces, from informal family gardens, traditional cottage gardens and productive allotments, to mature formal gardens.
There will be teas and cakes, plants to buy and a stall selling just the prettiest hand-made bird and insect boxes, to help encourage wildlife to make your garden "home".
Take a leisurely walk around the gardens - the trail is little more than half a mile and we guarantee that you will see gardening delights that are otherwise hidden from view.
So, whether you are green fingered or not come and share in the pleasure of someone else's hard work!
The benefiting charity is 1st Olveston Scouts.
