your tulips are good to look at on a cold day. I like the double colored daffy's. I had a few of the yellow ones but I think the underground moles got at my bulbs. Thanks for showing.

Oh Glenda, I'm glad to see that spring has arrived SOMEWHERE! It will be another few months before I see my bulbs blooming. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the moment of spring. I didn't think that tulips/daffs would grow in Texas...I thought they needed more cold than what you have there??? I love the name Oreo for your pup, it's quite appropriate!

Your spring flowers are lovely. It looks like little Oreo is enjoying the after-rain smells too.

My Daffs and Tulips blooms have not opened yet but they are certainly getting big.

Kasey, tulips are normally considered an annual down here. I have a couple of dozen red and black ones that are about to bloom and when they die back I will dig them up and keep them in the fridge, plant next winter and see what happens.
Daffs do just fine for me, coming back every year but then I am about 4 hours north of Glendan and cooler sometimes.
