zone5girl - Oh goodness! You WILL have blooms right after mine have faded! How exciting!!! Mine grew so fast once they peeked out of the soil. Maybe a couple weeks! Please post a photo when they all start blooming. It's gonna be lovely for sure!

Wallaby1 - Thank you for going to all the trouble to find and post all the web links. I'm looking and reading them all. I don't know if there is really any Tulip bulbs that I could leave in the ground that would come back next year. It gets really hot here and rarely gets colder than 45 degrees in winter. (Usually in the 50's at night.) I will get a day here and there that is near but not quite freezing temps. I'll probably have to dig them up and replant next year for similar results. But that's okay. I didn't even know if they would grow and bloom here at all. They are just stunning!!! So pretty even if short lived. :-)

More of them are popping up and blooming. I like grouping red and yellow together in a pot. And it worked out that they bloomed at the same time. I am fast becoming a fan of tulips and daffodils! :-)
