After a drab winter, tulips triumphantly emerge from the spring garden, a colorful symbol of rebirth. These humble bulbs have been celebrated, stolen, carried across oceans; at times they have been considered as precious as rubies. Happily for us, these days they are affordable luxuries—and easy to grow as well.
This charming little hardcover book includes everything you need to know to grow gorgeous blooms in the garden.
Like a bouquet of tulips, this book is the perfect hostess gift, Mother’s Day present, or stocking stuffer. It’s part of the collectible mini gift book series Little Book of Natural Wonders.
“Charming illustrations by Emily Poole and numerous quotes tug at our horticultural heartstrings, while a serviceable glossary and resource section at the back of each book indulge our yearning to grow more flowers and deepen our knowledge of the natural world.”
—Seattle Times, Pacific NW Magazine
