Earlier in the series I showed you tulips on Parliament Hill. At the time, the red ones were the only ones showing. When I took these, the Canada 150 tulips were out and about as well.
These I took on another day, late in the festival. There are a number of flowerbeds outside the Royal Canadian Mint up on Sussex Drive.
And this I took coming back from Gatineau for some tulip shots. There is a platform at the entrance to the Alexandra Bridge that gives a great view of Parliament Hill. The tulips in the planters are a bonus. Tomorrow we'll have a look at things in Gatineau.
Beautiful yellows in your second to last photo, William!
