Spring and summer have merged together this year! Tulips are still blooming, and the lilacs are early, spring ephemerals are in bloom with buttercups and the first day lilies. We do not remember a spring like this!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I have always loved Rembrandt tulips. The true historical Rembrandt tulips have broken coloring. This is caused by a virus, which the Dutch have taken great pains to wipe out. The tulips that most bulb companies call Rembrandts are tulips that have been bred to be flamed with colors but do not have the virus. Years ago I planted some purple tulips that returned year after year. At some point they moved from a solid purple to a broken flower of purple and white. I was fascinated by this.<\/p>\n

Last year I was able to buy some
\nhistorical broken tulips from
\nOld House Gardens
\nin Michigan.<\/p>\n

In my garden it is a clear and beautiful
\nstrawberry red with a heart of yellow.<\/p>\n

I hope to get pictures of
\nsome of the other tulips as they bloom.
\nWe have five days of rain in the forecast,
\nbut hopefully there will be some periods of sun.<\/p>\n
