I always think your Tulips are happy in your garden, fermi.

I always think your Tulips are happy in your garden, fermi.

I hope so! Mostly they look after themselves because they like the climate and we try to keep them dry in the summer when they are dormant.
Though they take about 7 years from seed I'm always getting some to try!
These are seedlings raised from Tulipa clusiana 'Lady Jane' from the Seedex,
cheers

Tulipa clusiana 'Cynthia'
Tulipa hageri 'Piccolo' (looks more like a pale version of 'Little Princess' so might be a hybrid?)
