By now we are well into the tulip season here in Cumbria. Glorious parrot tulips give welcome colour after the paler early narcissi. They compliment the double late narcissi, those that are reminiscent of a cream egg and can be paired with the new spring foliage that is bursting from its buds in the warmer weather.


Flowers during April may include:

Tulips, muscari, narcissi, forget me not, evergreen foliage, spring leaves, pussy willow, hesperis.
