GBBD in Buffalo: tulips

If you watch this video you’ll see the tulips I’ve got blooming as of today, as follows:

Species: marjoletti (matures from yellow to cream with reddish streaks),clusiana (striped), vvedenskyi (bright orange)

Triumph: Negrita, Amazone

Single Late: Blushing Lady, Mrs.Scheepers

Double: Orange Princess, Yellow Mountain, Black Hero

Lily-flowered: West Point

Parrot: White Parrot (possibly).

I love tulips, so this time of year in the garden is rivaled only by lilium time in July.

    Thanks Michele, but it is just an iphoto slide show turned into a video. iphoto kind of does everything for you. The main thing is getting royalty-free music so you don’t get spanked (rightly) by YouTube.

    Great presentation ELizabeth. I have not planted a tulip in quite a few years in L A. Thanks for reminding me what I’ve been missing.
