RE: At The Flower Market

in #marketfriday5 years ago

Here I am, repeating myself but thank you again for this nice comment and your support.

I'm with you on the 🌷 tulips, they are lovely, I would have loved to have the whole bucket but that would have costed me an arm and a leg.

They are always lovely and delicate, but they don't last long, unfortunately. However, there's a supermarket chain here called Lidl, they are selling a type of tulips that are smaller than usual and those last longer, about a week, which is very long when it comes to 🌷 tulips. The price is reasonable, so that's my place where I buy tulips.

I have some good news. Have bought black tulip bulbs, which were planted in October or November last year and are already growing 😀 wich means I'm going to post photos soon 😉

I have black tulips also!!!! Only two though. They are amazing looking and I can hardly wait to see yours!

By the way, I have a Lidl here too. Them and Aldi's are big in the States.
They did have the smaller ones and they do last longer than the longer stemmed ones! I was actually quite surprised and I really do love them,they are cute!

I wonder why tulips are so expensive. They are so short lived!

Then how come I've never seen any of your black tulip photos? How could I miss them? please tag me next time you're posting black tulip photos! That is mandatory for you now :D
We don't have Aldi yet, but they are preparing to enter the Romania market. I like Aldi and can't wait to have it here.
Tulips may be expensive because they don't last, but that's only a guess.

They were absolutely stunning but I have only had them for two years. The first year, I was away on vacation and spring sprung without me! My girls sent me a picture! LOL Last year, they were gorgeous and only lasted one day. I planted them in a different place this year because I actually think when they did bloom, it was too hot in the sun, so I put them in a semi-shaded spot.

We will see how this spot works out. They are very exotic looking, but, do not show off in the big garden as well as the red or even white.

You may be right about why they are so expensive.

Sorry to hear you missed them flowering. I'm afraid that's what it's going to happen to me too. I won't be able to be there in time, probably. We'll see, fingers crossed 🤞

Oh, yes!! Fingers crossed for you!!! I couldn't believe I missed them!
