Haven't seen the tulip/morning glory 'effect' either, but it looks stunning. I wonder if it could work in zone 6, Gem?

W., I read in one of the catalogs that tulip 'Lilac Wonder' combines will with narcissus 'Hawera'-- I wonder if that's so? any thoughts?

Sedum, Thanks for posting the pretty pics of the OHG tulips. I have lusted after them in the catalog and I'm am thrilled to 'know' someone who grows them!

pardalinum, you always have the most interesting bulbs growing in your garden! I think your garden and the Willamette Valley must be heaven in springtime (lily bloom time, too.)

Gem, do you think the red/yellow Fosteriana tulips will bloom with little early yellow daffs? I think it would be a sweet combination if the timing would work.

I am going out to check on my (potted) tulips. The sun is shining today and it's warming up so perhaps I will have some blooms to post later. In the meantime I can't resist posting a pic of my 'Purple Prince' tulip on our easter 'hummingbird cake'. (Forgive me! LOL)
