Lovely banner, Nancy. This time of year, they remind me of a warm and cozy fire. I'm sure sorry that I can't do more tulips. If the squirrels don't find the bulbs, the deer will certainly find the blooms.

I have the same situation. Most bulbs get dug up and eaten by wild pigs, and the deer eat everything above ground.

Beautiful
Don't squat with yer spurs on!
People try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved
Thank you so much, all! I appreciate your kind words, and your thumbs and acorns. After long Minnesota winters I can't wait for my tulips to appear, and these are definitely a favorite. The squirrels here do get a few bulbs, but I usually plant about 700 or so, so they don't do too much damage. And my big black lab and huge blue Great Dane do a great job keeping the occasional deer away.
