I am sure they did. Commonly have multiple blooms on each stem.

Newyorkrita,
Do they normally have multiple blooms the first year or two, or does it take them a while to built up to multiple blooms?

They should have them right away.

Iris reticulata Harmony

Love those, they look short in the photo how tall are they? Are they actually that color blue, love that dark blue color.

Yes, they are short. Well under 6 inches. Really are that blue.

Love the blue color of Harmony Rita. Keep those beautiful pictures coming.

We hit 84 degrees here today, it seem ridiculously hot to me. The tulips are looking crazy, not liking the heat, and more N. Tripartite popped open blooms very quickly. I also found my SBD iris Stitch Witch with an open bloom, and was quite surprised. My Galanthus are also starting to bloom.

Annette - while your temperatures shot up to 84 degrees, ours dropped to 60 degrees. At this rate, all the extra plant growth from the warm 70's of two weeks ago is going to be nullified by cold spell.

I think this is an ixia. I can't keep the two straight - ixias and Sparaxis

Wow - galianthus is usually first!

Annette and Diane, lovely blooms.

I have sooooooooo many crocus and lots of them blooming but it is cloudy today with no hope of sun. So all my crocus are closed up. I want them to open so I can enjoy those blooms!

Here's a pretty spectacular daffodil - Roulette (forced)

Beautiful! I Have those in my garden.

TA DA!
That IS beautiful!

I Never force bulbs. I am hopeless at it and I don't have an extra fridge. Then you see the pots of forced bulbs in the nurseries and they look so pretty. But me, I wait until things show up in my garden outside.

Here's some tulips - 5 cultivars -


from the bottom going left and around - Flair, Princess Irene, Mickey Mouse, Purple Prince, and Couleur Cardinal.

The white daffodil is Niveth (once described as the 'refined, uptown cousin of everyone's favorite, Thalia')...

lovely!

The crocus there are blooming in this new garden bed I put in last fall.
.


Last fall I put 600 crocus in this Southside Rose Garden as I wanted to start with a big splash of color.




I have Early Sensation daffs in back of some tulips here in my trellis garden. Those Early Sensation usually bloom mid March and they are only just about to open now.

NICE Rita!

I have a single row along the path in my tiny front yard.
I have resolved to mark "empty" spaces this year and add more.
It's so wonderful to see them happen early!

Zone 6 reporting.Tulips are up and compost layer all winter has made a difference.

The blue-eyed species tulip, Tulipa humilis 'Alba Coerulea Oculata'




looks purple to me
