Like the compactness of the species tulips, but have to avoid fritillaria. The lily beetles here like them. Apparently these beetles breed on lilies and fritillaria. I also found they ate my toad lilies, so I gave up on the lot of them.

Fancy, guess it's a matter of climate. Was in Niagara-on-the-Lake last April.
The climate is milder there than here, with an earlier start to the growing season. Saw this property for sale. There was a small amount of puschkinia,
but the large bulk was Chionodoxa luciliae/forbesii.
