Tulips

The weather turned warm quickly earlier this week. Our second set of tulips had not bloomed yet, and usually when it gets warm really fast the tulip's bloom time is shortened.

These tulips start out yellow, and turn more red with time. Since it has been warm, the red showed up very quickly. If I can, I will take more photos over the next few days so you can see them change color too.



I need to dead-head the narcissus. The iris are getting ready to bloom. It is time to buy some annuals so that we can have some color this summer too. I never buy annuals before Memorial Day, since I don't want to re-buy them if I plant 'em too early.
