I have those! Orange, yellow and white ones. Mine are about finished now.

 

Rest of mine are just coming into bud Catz but they have been stunning.

 

I put mine in a tub with yellow, white and orange viola and orange, yellow, and white crocus as well as some daffs. It has looked pretty good most of the winter. There's a pic on my blog but its not a great one. I've also done a pink and purple tub and a red and white tub. They are still coming into bloom. I just LOVE spring!!

 

Me to Catz my favourite season .

 

Lovely! Indeed that tulip is stunning. I really haven't tried planting tulip. Are they easy to grow?

 

Yes so easy Adam.

I bought my bulbs from Walkers bulbs last yr and then plant in Autumn Adam.

I plant my in layers in pots.

Had a few spare and just put in border.

Walkers bulbs have a discount on if you order before 18th May

 

Now, that's cool! Maybe I'll try to plant some next time. I really love the bulbs Scot!

 

Tulips have been beautiful this year. As daffodils started (and finished) very early, I think the tulips really came into their own. Have seen some quite unusual varieties too, I have some which look like peonies.

 

Oh, from afar I always had mistaken peonies as tulips sometimes. lol. Peonies do look like tulips before they bloom.
