Happy Easter Tulips

On this glorious Easter Day (well it was glorious earlier on) I thought I would share my bonkers, bright Tulip 'Flaming Parrot'.
I planted this as a reminder of my amazing trip to Florence with my lovely Mum last spring.
This is is what we saw in Florence... 


...and here is the tulip in my garden...

...not bad for a first attempt!


They started as frilly green buds and gradually got frillier and more colourful...


...until they exploded!


So a vibrant and explosive success story to celebrate Easter Day.


Although I have to admit when I checked them this morning there appeared to be a few petals missing. 
SOMETHING IS EATING MY EASTER TULIPS - IS NOTHING SACRED!
