I love flower and vegetable gardening. Lucky to live on an island on the Southern BC Coast with a large variety of native and introduced species.

Yeah these are definitely a great deal. I have ordered specific varieties from speciality garden shops before and they're much more expensive per bulb.

I'm not sure if I got the conversion right but is RS the Pakistani rupee? If that's the case then our saffron crocus are about 58 RS per bulb. But day lilies and irises tend to be quite expensive in my experience. I've seen daylilies for $20 CAD per root and irises around $15 per rhizome.

Pak rupees @rockyshores yeah it's less expensive if u convert CAD dollar to RS. But everyone have a value of their country currency.
