@crawgarden Rj, thank you for all the wonderful photos you submitted in this year's photo contest. They were a delight to see. Tulips do not like to grow in my Georgia garden. If the warm wet winters don't rot the bulbs, the hot springs burn the blooms! At least I can enjoy them through your photos. Is this in your garden? If so, you are quite the gardener as well as photographer.

@LoriMT Lori, I have heard that Tulip clusiana and its cultivars (such as those above) are more adaptive to southern areas---if you want to give tulips a try. Smiling
@crawgarden It looks like your tulips are reproducing for you. Hurray! I have a cultivar of clusiana called 'Taco' that is multiplying very well for me. Smiling
