Home Depot, Wal-Mart, etc - seem
able to have spring flowering, fall planted bulbs available for sale way
earlier than mail order vendors can ship. How come?

They demand receive priority from their overseas vendors and their 
distribution and warehousing and shipping are very, very efficient. For a peek into the 
big box business model, peruse the supplier information section of the 
Wal-Mart website at:
