  28. The tulip bed is gorgeous Arija. I love the stonewalk. The small-time gardener that I am, I feel ecstatic when I see a flower bloom. I can only imagine the joy you must feel to see the garden bursting in color. I hope the weather tames itself and you get your strength back so you can plant to your heart's content.

  42. The tulips are magnificent but I love the combination of the poppies and the ranunculus..
    How about planting in pots rather than the ground? Would that work?
