With apologies to those of you still looking at snow... the tulips are blooming!

I wonder what color this one will be?

These are from either Gurney's or Park Seed, I forget... 8 regular and 8 ruffled. My favorite kind of flower: dig hole, insert bulb, ignore.

Love those tulips! I keep going out and looking for mine, but there's still a lot of snow on top of them. I'm going to guess yellow for the unopened one, so you'll have to post a picture of it when it opens...

That is a real sign of spring, I cannot wait until they start popping up around here.
The unopened one looks kind of gnarley or something.
glad you have something growing!

Spring starts here with the pink magnolia,

Beautiful pictures wsmoak!! They make me wish Spring was here already....soon can't wait.

My tulips are coming up already, can't wait until they bloom in the Spring. Its really so nice to think about all these flowers and plants spring into action. Its like a breathe of fresh air after a long hard winter. To me life just seems better and more exciting once Spring arrives.

Mary, when you say you have no snow, do I detect a wistful tone in
your post?

Wistful tone or no, I love it!

My star Magnolia is almost opening and your tulip tease is appreciated!!!
