I think I ought to be realistic and not plan on doing too much too fast. If I can actually get the first area planted, then I can always try to bulbs from the supermarket or elsewhere for the other side.







This is the are I want to put in tulips. We can't grow veggies here because it's too close to the house and the sills have lead paint in them. ~.~ One of the large green bushes is just an ugly bush and the other is a fuschia pink azalea. The red denotes my ever troublesome Tokyo Delight Hydrangea which just secretly hates me I think.

You can find all the tulips I am considering on the following website:

What a sweet yard! Do you have pix with the tulips??? I adore tulips but don't have enough sun here to coax them into blossom - share pix so that I may enjoy vicariously!

I liked the Tulip Palestrina and Passionale (sp?) in the Triumph section.

I voted for a couple on the list, but in addition I also really liked the Tulip Juan from the Emperor section, and the Tulip Swan Wings from the Fringed section actually made me "aww~!" but that one is sold out. .^^

I can't wait to see how it looks when you finish! =D

I'm so in love with your garden. Wish I had one like it. I voted for Queen of the Night but I really love the parrot tulips most. They weren't in the poll, or I'd've voted for them.

Yeah I think Queen of the Night looks great. You'll totally have to come for Passover and you can then hopefully see them. :D

I love tulips! They're my favorite flower. Of course, don't see a lot of them out here in Arizona.
