I've always loved tulips but I gained new appreciation for them when we moved next to neighbors who plant hundreds of tulip bulbs every fall. Last year I could not resist and when the tulips went on sale I bought every variety in sight. So, getting a preview of all of the tulips at the Chicago Flower and Garden Show was 
exactly what the doctor ordered! I even found a few varieties I had planted. This is one late spring, even for this far north, and the tulips in my yard are a long way off still-- we can't even see the dirt yet, thanks to tons and tons of snow. So inside this building on a pier in Chicago was in tulip heaven! Enjoy!
