My spring bulbs have started. I already had a lot of bulbs here and this past fall I added 4.999 more. Mostly tulips and daffodils. So I am really looking forward to the spring show. So I will be adding lots and lots and lots of pictures to this thread as my various bulbs bloom. But here's a start!

Crocus Sieberi Tricolor. New for me.


Tommies are new for me also. I never had this species crocus before and didn't realise they were so small.


Just a bunch of large flowerred crocus I have had here for years.


Crocus Golden Bunch. New for me this year. I love them.



Iris Reticulata Harmony.


The Maria daffs started to open today. I really love this variety.

I love Crocuses as to the Daffodils they finished flowering here.

Arif.

More blooms today.

Finally spring arrives in that corner of the world too.

Arif.

Beautiful Rita!!! I'm really looking forward to seeing the tulips too!

Gorgeous! I love the Crocus sieberi 'Tricolor'.

Pictures from today-

Itzim growing in a small garden off my patio. It mostly has roses in in so I wanted to add some spring color.


Some more daffs blooming today.


Here is a section of my front yard with these Belgium Block mini terreaces. I have daylilies at each end and daffodils in the middle.

Species Tulip humilis violacea. I got mine from Colorblends and it has a black base. Scheepers carries a strain with a yellow base. These things are small, as big as a large flowered crocus and only a few inches tall. But the color is outstanding and they really pop.


Planted in my front yard raised bed where they can really be seen well as they are in the very front right off the sidewalk. This bed is just full of daylilies and tulips with daffodils in back. The larger bottom terrace alone has over 500 tulips in it.

Ok, now to move to the backyard. This is a daylily bed here and has some lilies in between for late spring color. I wanted tulips in there for early color. I wanted early tulips and I did not want to replant each year so they had to be done once and stay forever. I decided on Greigii tulips. I bought four types, Goldwest, Large Copper, March of Time and Sundance. I put the four in each hole so that I had four of every one in each grouping. I was wanting a sea of color. It didn't quite end up like I planned. Sundance is blooming first and the other colors are barely showing buds. So I have a bed of one color in succesion instead of all colors at once.

And a low angle.


Looking toward this garden from a way different angle. You can see the row of Darwin tulips there in front of a daylily bed. This will be the third spring for them so they are doing well.

Incredible garden Rita ! Loving those Daffodil photos !

oooooooohhhhhh rita!

Thank you both.

I already had a lot of bulbs because I planted some each fall. But this is what happens when one is crazy and buys 4,999 bulbs to plant last fall. The newer daffs put in this fall are mostly just comming up out of the ground now. And tulips are EVERYWHERE. Just everywhere I look down there seems to be tulips growing.

I like crazy people....

That's amazing looking RIta!! I love the species Tulip with the black base!

The blooms really do look like a hot pink crocus flower. I just love that color.
