This year, we are featuring the red & white lily-flowering tulip, Marylin, and vibrant red perennial Darwin Hybrid Tulip, Holland s Glory See page three for information. Lycoris are known as surprise lilies because of the way they pop up unexpectedly in late summer when almost nothing else is in bloom. The foliage dies off long before the blooms appear. This year, we are featuring red and pink Lycoris for the first time. See page fifteen for details. This bunny may like the daffodils, but the real bunnies won t bother them.
