I am in Perth Western Australia and would like to buy some crowns.Bunnings does not have them and the Nurseries only has seedlings which will take some years to harvest!!
Could you please advise
I bought crowns at Aldi for $6 for 2xpkt. Also saw and bought more at The Reject Shop about july/August 2014.
Am looking out for them again this year.
Always browse at the above for odd and interesting bulbs.

I haven't been able to find anyone selling crowns. Bunnings have seedlings at present -early May, but, like me, I think you will have to plant seeds or seedlings & wait it out.
Adriana, bulbsonline.com.au has them in WA when in season, great, big healthy crowns way cheaper and bigger and better looking than the others I looked at, I planted loads last year. Still need to wait for a harvest with crowns though not as long as seeds or seedlings.

Adriana,
Contact Tesselaars and/or Garden Express and ask to be put on their catalogue maailing list. Both usually sell crowns in winter by mail order.
