I popped over to Holme Pierrepont Hall this afternoon to check out their naturalised wild tulips... not a day too soon as they are on the point of going over, but still quite a beautiful sight.

    Lovely tulips. What are they called, @Dovefromabove?

    Can’t remember... saw a programme about a planting like that a few years ago. Loved it.

    WillDB says Tulipa sylvestris.  Lovely delicate little flowers...
