Re: Other bulbs

Four of my tulips are blooming here in ne Indiana.
One of my favorites, T. turkestanica,
a little pink humilis variety,
T. 'Ice Stick', a cluisiana type
and a white Kaufmanniana

Lots of daffodils, bloodroot in full bloom, a few Hyacinths, Scilla
siberica, Mertensia showing buds.  Anemone nemerosa leaves greening up,
should bloom in a few weeks, but the yellow A ranunculoides already has
buds, so should bloom soon. Chionodoxa, Glory of the Snow looking
fantabulous.  Crocus, reticulata Iris, and Snowdrops are about done.
