Baltimore's Cylburn Arboretum Association has begun its fund-raising bulb sale, offering a catalog of spring and fall bulbs chosen by volunteers from among those that do best in our climate.

 Visit the Arboretum Web site and print out the catalog and order form. The bulbs will be available for pick-up during the Arboretum's Bulb Bazaar, Oct. 9 and 10.

 Some, but probably not all, of the bulbs in the catalog will also be available for sale at the festival.

There is a 5 percent discount on orders placed before Aug. 5. All the bulbs are from Brent and Becky's Bulbs.
