My lovely purple fringed tulips are in full bloom right now so I’ve been trying to either peek outside or go out into the garden more often this week so I can enjoy them while they are in bloom.
It’s a shame that such a lovely flower doesn’t bloom more than a week or two isn’t it?
It’s cool and rainy here in Toronto today. Actually with the exception of two days this week it’s been a fairly cool month. So unless we get a sudden hot spell like we did at the end of April I’m pretty sure that my lovely tulips should last the better part of the week.
I’m hoping that my bleeding hearts come up soon. I have them planted at the side of the house in an area that tends to get quite dry in the summer. I’m sure we lost a fern that had been planted there for the last few years due to lack of watering that area properly last year. Now I think we might have also lost the Bleeding Hearts. I’m sure it’s usually starting to come up by now most years.
Well, if we did lose the bleeding hearts at least I have some pretty pictures of it from years past!

What beautiful tulips. It is so sad they only last for such a short period. I hope your Bleeding Heart pulls through!
