Shirley it's Time for Tulips!

Shirley Tulips in Bloom

And here's where you can find Shirley! The Front Sidewalk Garden. This is the third year the tulips have come back in this garden. I've heard people complain about tulips not returning but these have been very faithful. The front sidewalk garden is located on the north side of our house and receives little sunlight during the winter which probably helps with those necessary chill hours. The purple tulips are 'Negrita' and I'll show more of them later in the week. Neither type of tulip has peaked yet but they are close. In the center of the walkway is creeping phlox which I plan to highlight later in the week also.


What kinds of tulips do you have in your garden?
