Here in Michigan, the tulip festival in Holland, MI, is now underway. All of the trees and spring flowers are now in bloom and it is a breath-taking sight!

I am from MI orignally and have been to Holland many times for the Tulip Festival. A very beautiful sight with so many tulips blooming. I also love Frankenmouthe. Christmas all year long there. I've also been to Irish Hills sand dunes many times buggying the dunes. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

I love the places you've mentioned and so many more here in MI. The Great Lakes are especially beautiful to visit. I uploaded a picture of one of Holland's tulip fields to my space here on MyLot, but do not know how to get it into a comment response. Take care, and have a beautiful day! Karen

They are quite a rarity here now but I remember them from my childhood in UK. The scent was sooo beautiful! One of the first flowers that I remeber as a child because I was attracted by the gorgeous array that mother had year after year in her garden all those years ago. Fond memories too!

I don't have any planted flowers to bloom. I have a hanging basket of impatience that gets little flowers on it a lot.

How sad that their scent can cause you problrms. I have sinus problems too but not caused by scents and that of lilies of the valley is too good to miss.

I Love flowers & the site of the many different colors a blooming. I am still in the process of my flowers to bloom. I have a late start for I have had a shoulder injury & because of this I am a little limited to what I can do. It is rough & you don't realize how much you use a certain part of your body until you get an injury. I am working on a Gardenia & a mini rose, I am growing them in pots so I can have a portable garden & also I am working on a portable veggie garden too. Happy MyLotting.

Well Grandpa Bob as you know I don't own the house or the yard I'm renting so no I don't have any flowers. I am thinking of either getting a planter and putting flowers in it, or getting one of those hanging plastic planters that has flowers in it and have it right by the front door! If I do get it this weekend I will take a photo and post it here for you .

Me too & that is why I say a portable garden or flower garden. If you move it comes with you. I also love indoor potted plants which I have quite a few in my home. It gives your home plenty of oxygen too. I LOVE PLANTS, LOL!!!

Those are cute. I remember having those little flowers out behind our house when I was a kid growing up. No blooming flowers here to show pictures of.

I love those little flowers. I saw a box of them at Home Depot the other day but when I looked, it was empty. I planted some impatiens outside my garage and finally got some vegetables in the ground with a fence around them to keep out the dogs. I cleaned out the weeds by my back fence just now so I can put my morning glories there a little later tonight. I'm really tired. The moss roses can wait a couple hours, too. It's supposed to rain tomorrow so I want to get it all done this evening.

Angel Trumpet Plant - Blooming Angel Trumpet plant
Your Lily's tiny bells are very beautiful. I went walking to day and I stopped to visit a cousin that was working her yard. She gave me a plant, the plant name is Angel Trumpet, it is very tiny now and I hope I can grow it into a very beautiful plant. I just did a search of Angel Trumpet plants and they are very beautiful plants with blooms hanging down similar to your bells on your lily. This is a picture of the plant.
