TULIPS in our Yard during March/April, 2016

In Monday's post (click HERE),  I mentioned that I'd share with you some of the many colors and varieties of TULIPS in our yard this Spring.... SO---I went through my tons and tons of photos taken this past month or so and picked out some to show you.  Hope you enjoy these little beauties...  We don't have nearly as many Tulips these days as we did Daffodils and now have Irises,  but the tulips we did have were just beautiful... I do wish there was a way to keep the critters (chipmunks and squirrels from digging up our bulbs)---because I do LOVE Tulips and would have many more if possible.  Oh Well.... We are learning that certain flowers do better here (as we try to protect them from the critters including DEER)....

Hope you enjoy them...  I'll include the date when the picture was taken.  The one at the top of the post was our first Tulips to bloom --and they were SO pretty this year.  Their  name is PURISSIMA Tulips (photo taken on 3/25/16--but they first bloomed  on 3/19).

Well---that's some of our little Tulip Beauties!!!!!  Hope you enjoyed seeing all of the various color combinations.   Do you have a favorite?   It's hard because I see beauty in all of them---but the different yellow/red combination ones AND this last one really 'ring my bell'......  Whacha think, my Friends?

Have a wonderful week/weekend...

Hugs,
