I'm going to be in waiting after this one dies and will be happily waiting on the stew seeing all the flowers you all have right now. But I wanted to share my last tulip with you all. I love the color. I don't remember having any orange ones last year.

I think the bees have been flitting from yellow to red and have produced that beautiful orange bloom for you.  I know I get some lovely colour combinations just through pollination. Isn't nature THE best?!!!

Such a lovely orange! Our tulips didn't do well this year, and now they're all done.
