I'm not much of a gardener myself, but I sure do like to take pictures of @dirtdorphins gardens. And I couldn't find a thread that I felt okay about spamming up with shots.

So please, spam away here and let's see what's happening with your bulbs this spring...

Here's a pair of tulips. Or a two of pairlips. Or something...

Gorgeous shot Asa!

I have been waiting on this one for 3 or 4 years

finally!

another shot of that tulip


and ask Asa about that immovable 'friend' of the bulbs

Bottom pic, tulips in the middle are they Praestans Shogun? Thx

Indeed Rj, that is what they are

one of these years, the stars will align and I will get a decent pic of them open with their muscari friends and the angels will sing...until then, you'll just have to imagine how cool it looks

It looks great!

I just walked a little over lunch in our town square. Keep in mind our Tulip Time isn't until May 2

At the Mountain Timpanogos Latter-Day Saint Temple

We have been getting some rain lately, haven't we Paul?
Nice to 'see' you! through your pictures that is

The same two from yesterday:


Red one with a rose friend:


Neat orange one:

Dirt......We've had a wonderful wet spring. Won't feel guilty when I water my yard this summer.....Your pictures are always a delightful highlight of the site.

Okay, here's what I mean

The bluish syles kinda match the muscari--but it's hard to get a decent pictures showing that. And, they're kinda on their way out now (spring bulbs are so ephemeral). I'll try again next year.

yay daffies
wish we didn't have such horrid trouble with the bulb flies.
Ginny your town square is really impressive! I'd go walking for every lunch

some from the other night

Beautiful Dirt
A couple more

This one kind of tricked me. I thought for a moment that the rose had started already...

So pretty - which one is that Asa?

Love the light here, Dirt. A spledid image.

Sorry about your continued trouble with the narcissus bulb fly. I dug and destroyed a couple of narcissus cultivars yesterday. I thought I had things under control, but I have had extremely few blooms and on inspection almost all the bulbs were affected by larvae. I'm afraid there will be no more narcissus here, except maybe in pots.

Love this one, wonder what cultivar it is?

A few images from today, mostly tulips which are at their peek now:

Thinking of the thread title, so here is 'Brown Sugar' and some friends.



Tulip 'La Belle Epoque'. This one is in a pot on the patio.



Also in pots on the patio:



Tulip 'Janis Joplin'



Tulip walkway. This one needs to be enlarged to appreciate. The tulips look oh so small in the thumbnail.



Mixing in something not so well groomed into the photos. Can't be too tidy. Tulips by the old ugly concrete well ring.
This one is best not enlarged.
Tulipa 'Poppie' (red) and 'Purissima'(white). 'Janis Joplin' in the background.



Different angle. 'Poppie' and 'Purissima' is in their third year without lifting or replanting. They still bloom very well, so I think I can wait another year replanting them. This is a very dry spot as it is close to large pine trees.



Some Crown Imperials and tulip 'Apertif'. I photographed 'Apertif' in just the right time, as unfortunately it fries on a hot day even in Sweden. By the afternoon it looked like colorful tissue paper on sticks. We went to 25℃/77℉, which is unusually high for us at this time of year, and the full sun was too much for it.
