I don't have as much luck planting in containers, but that sounds like a pretty combination of tulip varieties.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9125698507772106631.post-43690472889887748952017-05-03T07:45:14.725-05:002017-05-03T07:45:14.725-05:00I know, Liz.

Over here they are all gone and now it's time for the summer flowers. It has been unusually cold so the roses are holding on to the buds but the first few flowers are here. I also have 'Coleur Cardinal.' I planted them in 5 large containers together with 'Ronaldo', 'Prominence' and 'Gavota' - and it turned out to be a nice combination :-)<br />Enjoy your beautiful spring garden!HELENEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16112289914239038835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9125698507772106631.post-55753421306648636952017-04-28T06:43:44.839-05:002017-04-28T06:43:44.839-05:00Who'd have thought there were so many types of...Who'd have thought there were so many types of daffodils?!<br /><br />And the blossom on the trees still looks lovely to me.
