The crucuses (croci?) are up and blooming
and the assorted tulips are up and starting to bloom. Notice anything?
For being "assorted," they're all looking pretty much exactly the same color to me. We also planted some striped tulips and anemones--neither of which have made an appearance yet. I've never grown tulips before (and at less than 50% am not doing such a great job of it now), so I'm excited that ANY of them came up. I have been warned that they will spread, but we'll have to see about that. If I can kill off half of them before they ever started to come up, what are the odds I'll be overrun by the things in a few years......?

Next time you guys come to the northwest for a vacay check out the tulip fields in Mount Vernon. To die for. Just acres and acres of the most gorgeous color you've ever seen! (You have to have good timing, though.)
Ironically, the deer eat all of the tulips in OUR yard.
Tulips! I love tulips...we have a ton of daffodils in the garden here (which spread in the same way), but only a few tulips. I thnk the moles eat 'em or something.
