Nice collection. I've had they yellow and red type of tulip as long as I could remember and they put out pretty much the same exact number of flowers every single year so they work as a pretty good perennial. Mine should start blooming in 2 weeks
Thanks for the nice comments! I should point out that there are only a few of each of the five different tulip varieties in bloom right now, with loads of daffodils. So far no issues with deer. :-)
Marie: I'm probably not going to MOBOT anytime soon, so will most likely miss the spring display of blooms. Sorry!

I am a huge fan of orange parrot tulips. This is a stunning collection. Are yours in bloom already?
Can't wait to see the photos from the Missuri Botanical Garden.
If this was going on in my garden right now I'd be running around saying "Wow, wow, wow".
LOVELY!!!
It's all about tulips here too.
Beautiful! Your mallow seeds are on their way! Mailed them yesterday ;)
