TULIPS IN MAY IN CANADA

TULIPS are such a delight in our country.

I have photographed them every year.

Some in my garden and some in places I have visited.





The Tulip Festival in Ottawa 2011 on our 40th anniversary trip.









2012 beauties!!










At the Library in a huge bed of pink like a moving ocean.


Back to my garden.





Downtown.

Tulips help to highlight a garden on a city street.

A Harbourfront journey in downtown Toronto May 2016 to celebrate our 45th anniversary.

 After a rain.

 A little cluster daffodils crept into the picture.


2017 the 150th celebration of Canada.


 A perfect tulip showing the Canadian red and white for the celebration.


A trip to Niagara on the Lake. So many tulips along the street. 2019
 Orange in more than one shade.


 Oh the pink. Heavenly.



Of course another beautiful year for my garden too.








Then the Fall brought the idea to plant those bulbs for the 75th anniversary of the Liberation of Europe.


So planted in the Fall.

This year 2020 some came up in the garden just in time for the May 8th celebrations.



None in my pots because the squirrels ate them.

 A row of them with one lonely one blooming at the end. I am still waiting for the rest to bloom. But with a surprise May snowfall it was hard for them.

So tulips bring so much joy to the garden. Thank you to the Dutch for this beautiful flower.
