Tulips

Last fall I remembered something I've always wanted to do.

Because of one reason or another this is the first time I've attempted planting bulbs in the fall for a spring bloom and I am loving them.

Since I was unsure of how my little plot of soil in front of my window would do, I only bought 12 bulbs, but they grew so tall and pretty I am pleasantly surprised at the size of them and how long they've lasted.

Lucy: "Oh, our flowers. They are so pritty!"

My little helper is a big encourager, even if she won't touch the dirt herself.

I do have one little straggler. Hopefully he'll catch up before his sisters fade but if not I have a little vase on my table that he'd look quite lovely in.
