At the end of April I posted Shades of Spring; some pictures of the tulips I had enjoyed in my garden in early spring.
Now a look at my mid to late spring tulips
May brought to my garden some lovely tulips, both delicate and dramatic…
Tulipa humilis “Little Beauty”
~~~
A fabulous parrot tulip…
Tulipa ‘Estella Rijnveld’
Tulipa ‘Estella Rijnveld’ from above
~~~
Delicate hues of pink and yellow…
Tulip Angelique
Pink Tulip (name lost and forgotten!)
~~~
And fiery oranges…
Flaming Tulip (real name also lost!)
I managed to put a name to so many, as a future record, but sadly not all.
My favourite this year was definitely the parrot tulip… so cheeky and fun! I think I may put in a few more in different colours this autumn.
Any recommendations?
Do you have a favourite tulip in your garden?
