Thanks everybody! Yes, that field of blue and orange really stands out from all the other fields, although the tulips sort of started to wilt, but still looks gorgeous.

Very nice photos! I was lucky enough to be there for training for a week in May years ago and got to take in the tulip festival and tour parliament building etc!

WOW, really nice pics. Who doesn't love tulips - so colorful. I too really like the pic with the Muscari interplanted with the tulips.

Thank you Silken, Mira_Claude and Oscarman. Every year these tulips mark the beginning of real spring for me and the end of long canadian winter.
