Lunaria and Fancy Tulips

This Lunaria comes all the way from Bealtaine Cottage in Ireland! Well, the seeds did. I got them from Colette a few years ago, and the Lunaria has finally found its favorite spot at Faery Hof:

The perennial tulips I fell in love with two years ago at Tulip Fest in Holland, Michigan have begun their show:

With any luck, they’ll eventually look like these. Hey, my hubby is half Dutch, so I’m practically required to love tulips!

Another Holland, Michigan splurge, these fancy “parrot” tulips, open to orange, green and yellow in the same flower:

Today also marks the first bloom of these anonymous tulips in residence courtesy of the Squirrel Relocation Program. These pink beauties have recovered from their harrowing squirrel journey and continued to multiply by one bloom per year:

Wishing you a beautiful day!
