Tulip seasonal highlights — a year in review

I've been growing Tulip for a full year now and want to capture what each season offered. earliest crocuses and snowdrops emerging in late winter was the clear high point — everything you're told about Tulip at that time of year is true. But the plant has something to offer in every season, which I hadn't expected.

wide range of flower forms, heights, and flowering times is consistent throughout the year, which is one of its real strengths. I've settled on a container for a doorstep or patio display as the ideal position. lifting and drying tender bulbs before autumn frosts was the lesson I took into next year. narcissus fly larvae tunnelling into the base of the bulb is the only thing that interrupted the enjoyment. Otherwise: excellent.
