Nice flower. Many years ago my grandparents had this huge circular
flower bed ( 30 feet in diameter ? ) in the middle of their driveway
turnaround. Hundreds of tulips. Three or four colors, do not remember.
All the different colors planted in circular fashion. Quite the show
every spring. They would dig the bulbs and store them in their
basement for the winter.

Must have been spectacular. Did they live in FL? I'm asking because here [48° latitude] fall would be the right time to plant the bulbs.
