Solas means "light" in Gaelic. We are a co-op of private, small, independent gardens formed from the love of and over abundance of bulbs and a few select plants we love to grow. We sell only blooming-sized bulbs and all of these bulbs have bloomed for us before they are shipped to you. All of our bulbs are grown from seed with the exception of hybrids which are offsets. The only exception to this rule being Narcissus suitable for the South which are shipped in mid-October; and of course, the Louisiana Iris. We also frequently have rare and hard to find fresh seeds. We are located in gardening zone 9a along the Gulf Coast of Texas on the remnants of what was once the great Katy Prairie.
At present, our web site is still under construction. We are making an effort to present you with our entire spectrum of bulbs as soon as possible. Check back frequently--we also design and update our own website--and therefore, it frequently changes. We also add and subtract from currently available stock as bulbs go dormant for the season or sell out.
We have been actively involved in growing plants and bulbs for well over 20 years. We are members of IBS (International Bulb Society), PBS (Pacific Bulb Society), NARGS (North American Rock Garden Society), SLA (Society for the Louisiana Iris), ADS (American Daffodil Society); TDS (Texas Daffodil Society), and a longtime member (although not very active) of Dave's Garden (dmj1218) and have a 100% rating on the Dave's Garden Watchdog at:
