tulips

I've got two tulips in bloom in my garden- can't believe it! i always thought you get daffodils first then tulips. My daffs are still just coming up- apart from one that has a bud. Has spring got all mixed up or do some tulips come out this early normally? Sorry about the state of the photos. Can't work out how to get them portrait way up. Quite like the fact you can't rely on stuff happening in a set order. Suppose i should be worried but i guess if we are messing up the planet Nature will find a way to sort us out.

  1. Hello
    I am new to your blog and I love Tulips!! I have always thought I would have a garden but instead I have acculumated many house plants and cacti...Ah well. I like those too! I like your blog. It is fun and informational. I expect you are a creative person. I love dancing so we certainly have that in common.
