Isn’t it strange how some tulips have already finished flowering (I disposed of a few pots last weekend), and some haven’t even started yet. Looks like with a little bit of planning tulip season can stratch from February well into May.
May at I share my faves this year...? The most gorgeously delicately coloured Salmon van Eijk. Really tall robust stems, and the most exquisite colour... long lasting, too. A real winner all round imo!
PS Just seen @Maran has posted some Mystic van Eijk... not dissimilar, I guess...
These are not quite as green as spring green @Marlorena but are a nice creamy green, go really nicely with pure white daffs and dotted around all the new emerging foliage
those dusky pinks are lovely @Janie B, they’re going on the wish list
Annoyingly I cant rememeber @Marlorena, but i have a feeling it was Purissima, I got them as they were on a list of reasonably reliable perennials. This is the second year and most if not all all seem to have come back strongly

Mine haven't opened yet!
The pot with the purple ones (which I think are Slawa)In was meant to be a layered pot with daffs in but they didn’t appear.

Orange Angelique - very lovely too... I didn't know they came in that colour... my Orange Emperors seem to be just finishing today...
'Ballerina' orange lily tulip with purple 'Queen of the Night'?
Sorry, folks, the photos are not where they should be!
