Visiting Bonnie Plants (Opelika, Alabama)
1 week ago
Setting up home in a new country is going to be challenging. A bit like trying to cook a meal in someone else's kitchen. Maybe. This is a record of my experiences as I pack up my old life in England and start a new one in Ontario, Canada, with the aim of becoming more self-sufficient.

Hi Amanda,
Your tulips are called "botanical tulips". There are several types - I'm not sure which one you have. They look a bit like Tulipa tarda, but I'm not sure. These are the types:
•Tulipa clusiana
•Tulipafosteriana
•Tulipa greigii
•Tulipa kaufmanniana,
•Tulipa praestans
•Tulipa tarda,
•Tulipa turkestanica
Perhaps google can help?
It's wonderful when the first miniature daffodils open their flowers, isn't it? Here in the Netherlands we are about 10 days ahead of you, and we have Chionodoxa, larger Narcissus, Forsythia, Ribes and Pulmonaria flowering. Spring is here - hurrah!
Thanks Ellie! How apt that someone from the Netherlands should answer a question about tulips... ;-)
