Here are some of the pics I have taken right in and around my garden, I haven't posted much because I have been really busy with work and school.

Here are some tulips

Banja Luka
I just planted them last year(2006) and they are beautiful.


Gavota
I just planted them last year(2006)


Cut Gavota
I cut one of the gavotas to bring into the house, not the best lighting on this one.


Tillium
This is native to Ontario(our provincial flower) and I am always fascinated by them. In some forests there are amazing displays of them and they are illegal to pick because of there numbers are very low and they are trying to save them.






My Azeala (Rosy Lights Azeala)
I can't wait for it to flower, it will be the real first year for him


There is more to come, and some citrus photos to.

Very nice indeed!!!! I so love Trillium, we have it here in Minnesota too and when you come across a large grouping on the ground while walking through the woods, they are a beautiful site!! Thanks for sharing! Very Happy

Nice pics Valencia-- tulips are just not worth it here-- blooms last about 2-3 days. and bulbs rarely bloom a second year. I used to grow them in NC-- along with hyacinths, crocus and daffodils.

Skeet I couldn't imagine spring without tulips or crocuses, but then again i could take the heat. Laughing

Valencia, your tulips are first class. Great colors. I just returned from the Netherlands a few days ago. I must have seen zillions and zillions of tulips. None better quality than yours. - Millet
