I love looking at gardens. Your flower-bulbs are soooo beautiful.

The tulips have started to open.

My favorite tulip

From the Rembrandt collection:

And a daffodil with no 'horn,' forget what the variety name is.

Thanks for looking.

Beautiful flowers

These don't look like tulips

Te hee, yup, DOUBLE tulips have more than the 6 petals. Some have so many petals that they look like peonies!

WOW!!! GORGEOUS!! Those are incredible blooms, Sandie. Do you plant all those yourself? You are one busy woman. The tulip colors are beautiful.

The one tight grouping of daffodils were here when we bought the house. they are so dense, we've tried thinning, but they don't see to survive when we move them!

The others, yes, we put in a few each Fall. Tulip bulbs only last about 3 years.

So we keep up with those. the hyacinths are so picky, so years we don't see them at all..
