Tulips in April

[mark smyth]

now that's got me thinking. Where are my Tulips whittallii and orphanidea

Gorgeous series of Tulips Armin and Mark !  What a splash of colour.

Here's what I have as T. bakeri 'Lilac wonder' - not rare but I like it a lot - and it does move around Mark !
Mine are planted in the garden in a pot with the bottom removed, that keeps them where I want them

thanks.

At our show yesterday there was a pot of batallinii labelled as clusiana but I didnt point this out. Should I?

[mark smyth]

yes my unknown white and yellow Tulip is tarda ex kazakstan. My whittallii and orphanidea are lost under my Lonicera purpusii. I'll have to move thm when dormant.

I was hoping more people would come forward with Tulips so here goes with more of mine
batallinii with 8 petals/sepals

clusiana 'Honky'

Mark, nice species...
Here T.clusiana now in full flower and seed of T.kaufmannia

if we had autumn flowering tulips I'd send in a pic! At present the first tulip foliage is just above ground, one of the cretans, T.cretica of which I posted a pic in the old Forum last September.
cheers

PS see you in 3 days time in Prague!
