Rogue Tulips And Dazzling Colour

Rogue tulips: often found in a bed of tulips, the work, perhaps, of a squirrel gardener. One often finds them in the flower beds during the festival.

  1. I wonder if the gardeners ever go round to remove them to keep their displays immaculate.

  4. Squirrels make rather unsatisfactory gardeners in my experience, though you can't fault them for endeavor.

  10. In some of these beds the tulips are rather far apart.

  11. I wonder if they pull all the bulbs up and then replant them in the fall...or just leave them for squirrel gardeners!

  13. I think the squirrels like a salad of tulip flowers. You often see them nibbling away on the blossoms!

  19. @Eileen: thanks!

    @Sharon: It's appropriate.

    @DJan: I do as well.

    @Agnieszka: thanks!

    @Red: yes, less density in some beds.

    @Barbara: they do take the bulbs out after the blooming is done, and plant things that grow into the fall. In October they replant the bulbs.

    @Bill: that they are.

    @RedPat: they do!

    @Cloudia: thanks!

    @Mari: thank you.

    @Furry Gnome: it seems an appropriate term for tulips out of place.

    @Joanne: that they are.

    @Grace: I do as well.

  20. I love to find the odd Tulip. Never thought of Squirrels but figured it was left in the ground when the other bulbs were pulled up
