WOW! Those are amazing tulips – what are they?
Romilly bought them on ebay. She can’t remember. Charles
The tulips are absolutely beautiful and look almost like dahlias in their burnished autumn orange. I’m reminded too of Louis MacNeice’s giant roses in his poem Snow. Thank you for sharing your tulips!
I love parrot tulips best, but these are really beautiful – what fantastic colour.
PS. Welcome home.
