I remember when I planted these tulips a few years ago. I went out with my trowel and dug down deep into the ground. Then I placed the bulbs in and covered them up with dirt. That was in the fall. Then I waited several months for spring to come. Would the tulips grow? They did! And now a few springs later I watched again as the green leaves poked through the dirt and then grew taller. And soon I will see the bright colored tulips again!
It was a lot of work way back in that fall. And a lot of waiting. But I know I will see those beautiful tulips very soon!
