Tulip

Mrs. O gave us some tulip bulbs as a house warming present when we first moved in. That was before we knew how many deer populated our area. They are everywhere - more visible at least then when we lived in Chelsea. Therefore, gardening, or gardening ideas are more of a challenge due to them eating EVERYTHING.

I had left the bulbs in the garage over the winter - I totally forgot to get them in the ground. I found them just prior to spring to be sprouting in the bags. I quickly got them into the ground thinking that it was worth a shot. It was definitely worth it. I have several clumps of Tulips growing and blooming. I can't believe it. I am looking forward to heading to a nearby nursery to get more things for our yard.

Here is a picture of my first blooming tulip.
