Garden Pic Wednesday: Hoosier Spring Flowers!

Image
We were in Indiana recently and I got some good shots of flowers from my Mother's garden! So today's Garden picks are some "Hoosier" flowers from her garden!  Tulips, which I can't grow in Florida, and something purple I have no idea what it is! Happy Tulips: Pretty red and yellow tulips tip their faces up, enjoying the sunshine! This is what tulips look like in full bloom.  Since they're shown so often in photos closed, I think people assume that's how they look all the time, but that's like assuming a rose bud stays a bud.  Even cut in a vase, tulip stems will continue to grow and take on all sorts of curved and twisted dimensions, their blooms seeking sunlight like a sunflower. This second picture I don't know what it is, except it's a very pretty purple.  It was in my Mother's garden bed near the air conditioner.
