Tulip time

My tulips are looking happy and enjoying the sunshine that we've had over the last couple of days. This is their third year, one in pots and two in the garden. They are Sarah Raven's 'Venetian Collection' and include Havran (the darkest flower), Prinses (Dutch spelling) Irene (orange with a red flush) and Couleur Cardinal (a bright 'Cardinal' red) which is a very old variety first introduced in 1845.
