    The tulips have been available in the countryside for at least a month. Two days ago I popped out to a nearby village to pick up some tulips for at home. They are sold from a small cart along the road.

    Then once home, trimmed and stuffed into a vase...they made a discreet presentation. Today they are beginning to come out of their shells. Take a look:

    Time for a closer look:

    Then, the price— €5.00 / 40 stems.
    Mates, it is a bit of spring in the house.

    Yeah Mart, we were happy with the price as well. There are a lot of roadside things to buy here. The prices are always good be it flowers, veg, fruit or milk products.

    Netty, we always have cut flowers in our house all year round.

    Thanks Eileen. Tulips are so lovely.
