I took this photo of pink hyacinths in my garden as they were just starting to bloom about three weeks ago. Unfortunately the flowers are long gone now.
The weather is finally starting to warm up here in Toronto and the rest of my flowers – ones that bloom most of the summer season, all have buds on them and they will begin to bloom shortly. I can’t wait. It’s a beautiful time of year.
This tulip has variegated (white and green) buds and leaves. I believe this tulip is the Canada Tulip. It’s bloomed now and the flowers are red and white.
It’s quite a pretty plant both in bud and in bloom.
Do you have an tulips that have variegated leaves or buds?
This is a hybrid tulip called Texas Flame. It’s also a fringed tulip – not the fringes on each petal? It’s quite lovely even when partially closed as in this photo. When the flower opens you can see an array of yellows, orange and red colors on the inner petals.
It’s just lovely.
One of the most flamboyant tulips that grows in my garden is the Texas Flame tulip. The blossom opens up wide to expose a blend of yellows, oranges and red. I just wish these flowers would last longer. They’re just about blown now.
