    I have ordered bulbs from a mail order nursery often because they offer species or cultivars that the local nurseries don't. But mainly I get mine at Lowe's.

    I've ordered bulbs online mostly. I've tried some from the big box stores, but they didn't seem to be of great quality or have a good variety.

    I didn't participate in the poll because I prefer to trade for them. Stores do not have the ones I would like to have, and most of the traditional spring bulbs at BBS's are not suited to a permanent life in the deep south. Bulbs are my favorite kind of plant for outside decoration.

    Best ones have been from Costco and HD but am known to buy online for some less common bulbs.
