Evaluating my recent tulips, I notice that the red ones are the first to decay… here’s one of the bunches

and here are the red ones, separated out

– not looking very tulipy….

    Interesting to discover that the colour of the petals contributes to faster decay.
    Best wishes, Pete.

    Hey, they’re just trying to give you what you want–material for photos of decay! 🙂 You should be thanking them for not making you wait longer.
