Tulips taking Centre Stage



I always look forward to the tulips, as I am a great fan of bright colours and vivid contrast. And that is what tulips bring to the spring time garden. But not only there, in many a city tulips take centre stage in large bedding displays in parks and public gardens. This year in London the displays are distinctly Dutch and tonal in appearance with the colours of the bulbs and other plants carefully chosen to either match or complement each other.
