    My tulips are finally in full bloom. Here are a few of them. The first one just grew up through the little twig chair that was in the garden.

    How pretty Polly. My tulips are blooming too. My Queen of the nights are just opening and I wanted to get some pictures tonight, but there is a thunderstorm approaching. Maybe tomorrow.
    I really like your deep red ones.

    Love them all but especially that 3rd picture!
    I need to take a lesson and plant bulbs differently. I've always put them in neat little rows. This fall I'm going to plant in bunches!

    It's tme to start soaking up the tulip photos while we still can because we probably won't see much of them before next year. Thanks for keeping the tulips alive Polly ;)

    Here are my Queen of the Night. They were a lot darker when I first planted them a few years ago. Wonder why?

    Very pretty Netty and I see Lady's mantle with raindrops just behind the tulips. Everything looks so lush in your garden.

    Netty, Lady's Mantle is one of my favorites so it is easily spotted by me.

    Lovely tulips ladies, they don't come back here, but are cheap enough to plant a few every year.

    Lovely tulips. I planted lots 'in the green' a couple of weeks ago that were given to me, so next spring I am hoping for a great show!
