Tiptoe Through The Tulips - Spring 2018

March 9, 2018, was the perfect day to tiptoe through the Tulips at the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens.

 

 

The afternoon sun provided the perfect lighting. The colors were vivid and the air was filled with perfume. My only regrets are that this blog post isn't a scratch and sniff. 

 

 

Tulips are blooming in splendid color, shapes, and sizes. There was peace in the gardens. Although tulips are short lived when they are blooming, it's a scene you don't want to miss. 

 

 

Love blooms at the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens. It is a place where you can be inspired to dream and imagine planting flowers in your own backyard garden. Although I may complain when there is rain, I feel no shame because the flowers forgive and they keep on giving back, year after year. 

 

 

Tulips make a triumphant entrance. They are not to be taken for granted. I hope that there are flowers everywhere, especially places where we cannot see. You see, they are the breath of the earth. After the rain they come out to say hello.We need to welcome them and enjoy their short term company. My feelings about flowers are as strong as their sweet, fresh, clean smell. I can't imagine living without flowers. I plant flowers to leave something behind. I only wish the Dallas Arboretum was mine.

George Souto - I sure you'll be seeing all the colors of the rainbow in spring flowers soon. After about a month of rain non-stop, the sun came out and a few days later we had tulips! Of course, this is at the Dallas Arboretum. I only  had one single daffodil in my yard and I am grateful.

Nina Hollander - It was great tiptoeing through the tulips. They made my heart sing! When I go back, I'll think of you and wish tulips come your way. They really are such a lovely flower and so short lived. I just had to embrace them while I could!

Bob Crane - Thanks for popping up so quickly and for the compliment too! I spent a of time deciding which flowers to choose and creating frames was time-consuming but fun. I'm glad you enjoyed them and I'm thankful for Myrl Jeffcoat for featuring them in her Photos Group. There really are a lot of special people here on ActiveRain.

Endre Barath, Jr. - I love that you have such happy memories of your mom. I often wonder if my son has thoughts like that of me. If so, I wish he told me. What I like about Tulips is that they have the courage to come out of the dirt after a long, hard winter, and stand tall producing one, single, masterpiece of a Tulip!

Endre Barath, Jr. Mothers and fathers are forgiving. They just want their kids to grow up and be happy and you are the product of their happiness.

Rebecca Gaujot, Realtor® - Glad to know you love Tulips too. As for that tune, I never could for the life of me figure out why Tiny Tim got so rich over that ridiculous rendition or why women were falling over to see and touch him.

I never could figure Tiny Tim out...but he did make money from that song., Have a great Sunday, Patricia.
