I suspect that you each have several mail-order bulb catalogs on hand, and also that each catalog devotes page after page to gorgeous photos of Narcissus and tulips, often right up front. Don't get me wrong, I love both of those. But today with help from Matt Mattus, author of the book “Mastering the Art of Flower Gardening,” we're going to look past those pages at some fantastic but too-often-overlooked bulbs and bulb-like plants that deserve a try. 

Before I placed my bulb order, I called Matt, who blogs on the website Growing With Plants, and on the latest podcast we showcased some of his favorite bulbs, including the most lily-leaf beetle-resistant lilies, and also some of his favorite bulb sources.
