TULIPMANIA 2015

panoramic view from South American Garden

This was the last burst of tulips Fairy Tales display before the change to Nursery Rhymes and my goodness, the tulips looked drop-dead amazing! These photos were taken before the crowd came in.

The kaleidoscope of colours was mesmerizing and the new varieties such as the frilly ones were eye-popping!
