Spring 2006 Lily Bulb Sale and Seminar Date: Saturday, April 8 Time: 9 am - 5 pm Location: Eau Claire Senior Center 1616 Bellinger St Maps If you are a serious lily grower come early for the best selection. Spring Sale Bulb List Seminar Schedule

WRLS sponsors 2 bulb sales each year. One in the spring (March or April) and the other in the fall (October) as a service to the gardners of the West-Central Wisconsin area. Some people drive over 100 miles to obtain the lily bulbs we make available. The bulbs are acquired from members as well as from reputable commercial bulb wholesalers. We strive to have high quality bulbs and a good assortment of lily varieties. New introductions into the lily commerce are usually included in each sale as well as some old stand-bys. Most bulbs are hybrids but we usually have some species varieties as well. No, we do not have daylilies. The are of the genus Hemrocalis, and are not true lilies, that is, of the genus Lilium.

Proceeds from these sales fund WRLS activities which includes our annual shows, the upcoming 2006 International Show, scholarships awarded at selected area schools, this web site, public educational meetings for those with an interest in gardening, the public lily garden in Chippewa Falls, WI, a display at the Northern Wisconsin State Fair, and other activities that promote lilies.

Of course availability of bulbs is dependent on some circumstances that are beyond our control; things like crop failure, harvesting problems, low yield, high demand, shipping problems, etc. Nothing out of the ordinary for this kind of product.
