Moving along the path, more tulip beds were in full bloom.
That included this raised circle of tulips I mentioned earlier in the series, with the series of panels about the history of the Tulip Festival along one side. You can see people looking at those panels on the far side of the circle.
There were also some of the large tulip sculptures in the park, and a panel series about Canada and the Netherlands which I showed you last year. There was a new panel among them, which I've included below.
Only other pace I have see so many tulips was in Holland, we seem to go for Bluebells & Daffodils here but you have really embraced the tulip
ReplyDeleteI think you must have more tulips than Holland!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
Ha ha, I thought the same as Gunn !
ReplyDeleteOr you tricked with Photoshop :)

ReplyDeleteThere's just no end of tulips in Ottawa. We don't have large tulip beds here. Now the sculptures are a little gaudy in this setting. I like to see them in a downtown setting. Fussy! Just me!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tulip sculptures!

It looks like it was a nice sunny day to see them all!
ReplyDeleteYou really should consider buying a DSLR camera William. Or perhaps a mirror less one.
ReplyDeleteThose fields are huge! Lovely.

You have a remarkable sweep of tulips in Ottawa. Beautiful!

DeleteWonderful shots of the tulips again. I think, Canada has as least as much tulips as the Netherlands.
ReplyDeleteNice to see there's a panel of our king Willy and his wife as well. :-)
We do have a big festival.
