In my tulip era
Can you believe I didn’t like tulips a couple of years ago? Now I’ve planted over 1,500 of them in my garden.
Yep, crazy right?
But walking around the garden now, I wouldn’t be without them. I’m already sad at the idea there’s only a few weeks left of this glorious colour.
I think one of the things I never realised about tulips was just how many varieties there were, I literally just googled it and there’s 3,000 registered varieties available for you to plant.
In my garden I’ve got:
Tulip ‘Swan wings’
Tulip ‘Lilac wonder’
Tulip ‘Amazing grace’
Tulip ‘Pink Star’
Tulip ‘Apricot parrot’
Tulip ‘Apricot beauty’
Tulip ‘Aphrodite’
Tulip ‘Request’'
Tulip ‘Fancy frills’
Tulip ‘Belle epoque’
Tulip ‘Power parrot’
Tulip ‘Pink and white luxury mix’
Tulip ‘White emporer’
Tulip ‘Charming lady’
Tulip ‘White triumphator’
Tulip ‘Finola’
Tulip ‘Amazing grace’
Tulip ‘Candy Club’
Tulip ‘Tabledance’
Tulip ‘Danceline’
Tulip ‘Ballerina’
