Tulip time!



I planted these 'Negrita' tulips as a companion to the pink PJM Rhodies Olga Mezitt.  Purple and pink are great colors for a spring garden!


Tulips make such a splash in the garden - I once planted some for a client and he liked them so much that the following fall he planted hundreds more!  Here are some photos from his tulip display:

  1. I would love tulips in the front garden. Unfortunately, so do the deer.

    1. Rude reality can get in the way...this property has deer fencing.
