Tulip time has arrived ~ and bunches of pink tulips have been airlifted from Holland to my local Trader Joe's. I found these as I shopped for other favorites such as fresh veggies and fruits, goat cheese, an artisinal French baguette, Greek yogurt, and of course some wine.
I love to have them close by as I work in the kitchen. Do you know that tulip stems continue to grow when placed in water? These little beauties were in a short tight bunch when I purchased them. I've already trimmed them twice but they're growing rapidly once again.

These are peeking out from a wall planter by the front door, and I must admit, are faux tulips - nice ones purchased at Pottery Barn a few years back. I bring these out only in Spring when real tulips are blooming. I do not buy many faux flowers however must say these look really great in a place where it would be difficult to keep live flowers.
The front porch is awaiting a good clean up and rearrangement after the wind and snow of Winter.

Stop by to see Beverly at How Sweet the Sound - lots more pink to enjoy!
