What to know about shopping at Peter Nyssen

Peter Nyssen is a UK specialist bulb supplier with over 50 years of expertise, delivering flower bulbs, perennials, seeds, and garden accessories direct to gardeners across the UK. Their range covers spring-flowering bulbs (tulips, daffodils, alliums, hyacinths) ordered in autumn, summer-flowering bulbs (dahlias, gladioli, lilies) ordered in spring, and a curated selection of perennial plants and seasonal growing accessories. The catalogue depth and focus on bulb variety sets them apart from general garden centres.

Discount codes typically offer 5–15% off, with free delivery promotions available on orders above a qualifying spend threshold — easily reached when buying bulbs in quantity for a meaningful garden display. Autumn (September–November) is the peak ordering season for spring-flowering bulbs such as tulips and daffodils, and this period sees the widest selection and most promotional activity before the planting season closes. Spring (February–April) is the buying window for summer-flowering dahlias and gladioli that are planted after the last frost.

Bulb buying is best done early in the season when the full range is available — popular tulip and daffodil varieties sell out before the season closes, and late orders risk limited selection on specific colours and varieties. Bulk-buy bundles on tulips and daffodils (10, 20, or 50 bulb quantities) consistently deliver the best per-bulb pricing and are the most cost-effective way to achieve a strong garden display.

For practical planting, the Peter Nyssen website provides planting depth, spacing, and timing guides for each variety — following these is worth the time investment, as bulbs planted too shallow or too early produce weaker displays. Tulip bulbs in particular benefit from cold conditioning, and the autumn planting window in the UK provides this naturally.
