TULIP REFLECTION - "BANJA LUKA"

I was on my tulip quest yesterday! How lucky was I to find this tulip "Movie Star" ?Banja Luka - a colorblend tulip variety that is marigold yellow - feathered with deep orange-red.

We have been house bound all day with the latest arctic freeze and lots of snow. Since about 8 this morning we've had white out conditions, freezing temperatures and lots of blowing snow. Predicted accumulations 13-15 inches. Now that's not much for some of you but for us here on Long Island -- that's a lot of snow. . .

However -- I had a great day -- making soup, reading and taking pictures of tulips since my attempts at capturing the falling snow were a failure.
