26 comments


ALL MY TULIPS HAVE BEEN LOVELY THIS YEAR.. BUT THESE ONES HAVE DONE REALLY WELL AND HAVE CHANGED COLOUR AS THEY HAVE OPENED.


FIRST THEY WERE A CREAMY WHITE….


THEN THEY GOT MORE WHITE WITH A BIT OF PURPLE.


TODAY THEY LOOK LIKE THIS

Very pretty Holly. I have a few dwarf red ones but they were destroyed by the rain before I could get a photo. I think I might have a go at some in pots for next year!

Lovely Holly. I had never planted tulip bulbs before but had a go this year with great results (apart from the ones the evil Damion the squirrel took). The best were Spring Green and a beautiful pink one, Angelique. Will plant more next time.
