Do you know...

The Bulb Garden is the newsletter of the Pacific Bulb Society (PBS). It is published about the third week of each quarter and is available to PBS members. This newsletter provides gardening or bulb related articles, news of interest to members, and announcements of the PBS.


Listed below are the contents of many past issues. Clicking on the associated links (under the volume/issue numbers) will let you download most of them. A complete set of downloadable issues is available here .

Anyone interested in writing for the newsletter should contact the editor, to inquire. We need articles ranging from garden design and personal experiences growing bulbs, to discussions of specific genera and families. Articles are accompanied by color photos, either from the authors or from our archive. Lead articles usually have 1200 to 1400 words; we also accept shorter pieces.


Business The Bulb Garden also publishes advertisements; please contact the PBS treasurer about rates.
