I can definately see why the white rhododenrons are your favourite Tina. I really like the centres of each fower with the touches of red and yellow in them.

Tina your colourful flowers that you are showing so far are absolutely delightful to see. You have done really well with them.
That Rhododendron is beautiful. My little rhodo is like that but just wioth a pinkish touch. It's a slow grower, but it is pretty. I love rhododendron flowers--they look so luscious.
...and didn't those tulips do well for you! They are picture-perfect to see in their containers. Will you let tyhem stand until the petals fall off or will you try and get the bulbs to multiply?
Decapitation is always so painful to do. To be honest, I do not do it myself very often.

Sjoerd - I have no clue what I am going to do with the tulips. I only know I am not going to cut them. I hope they will come back again next year.

Such a lovely rhododendron. I like the way the buds come out orange and then fade into yellow.
