This spring's tulip manifestation has been somewhat different in that I had single early, Triumph, Darwins, Greigii, species, and late singles blooming in the same time frame (last week). The Triumphs, Darwins and late single presently remain.
As to reason of time factor in same zone, I don't know, first thought maybe due to micro climatic differences although I don't think this spring has been particularily different than previous ones weather wise.
I've some lilies presently over 18" tall and I'd postulate all have made an appearance.
First bloom last year for lilies happened 5-14-10 (an Asiatic Pixie), year before was 5-21-09.
