These are a different variety of tulips and I'm sorry, but I don't know the name! They're not parrot tulips, I don't think. I got them at Trader Joe's for $7.99 and almost every single stem had MULTIPLE tulips on it! I've never seen tulips do this before. The first couple shots are from the first day I got them and the last picture is from yesterday, when they'd already opened a lot.
When you're a beginner at arranging flowers, it's always best to start by arranging ONE type of bloom per vase. A big bunch of tulips is the perfect place to start. A grouping of hydrangea is also a favorite of mine!
Look how opened up they are now! Did you know if your tulips start wilting you can throw a couple pennies in the vase and since they love the copper, they'll probably start standing up a little straighter. Though I do love the slight lean tulips do.
Hi! Longtime follower (love your style - design and clothing!), but have never commented until now! I also live in GR and saw in TJ's Fearless Flyer that they're called peony tulips :) Hoping to pick some up soon!
ReplyDeleteYou are so sweet!! Thanks for commenting, Nicole! YES, they are peony tulips! I got told that a lot on Instagram and confirmed it with a quick google search. They were so beautiful. I hope you picked some up for yourself!
