I've seen my first blooming tulips so spring is creeping in slowly. These were a new bulb color I saw at the garden center. The deepest red I've seen almost a burgundy or cranberry color and very tall. They were a very striking color and I could see them mixed in beds with yellow or hot pink.

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

Excellent close-up of these tulips with wonderful tones Kathy.
If you have the intention to buy a bunch of tulips (a rather common habit in my country) than you have to do two things in order to keep them longer fresh/in an upright position: 1. stab a needle through the stem just under the flower bud; 2. cut the stem at its end in a diagonal way.
These tricks were always used by my late wife, and she was a specialist for sure!

Regards, Cornelius.

If you stare at an orange juice container because it says, "CONCENTRATE"...you might be a redneck.
