Those beautiful tulips at the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm in Oregon reminded me that there is someplace I can go for a wonderful April tulip show. Filoli is a large, old estate garden somewhere west of Standford university and they plant a load of tulips fresh every year. Must be nice to have the kind of horticultural army they employ. Here are some photos from past years. It has been a few years since I've been so I will make it a point to go this year before I get my knee replaced in April.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Darn, we planning to go visit Filoli this Thursday which seemed to offer the most opportunity for a break in the weather. But now that garden is closed too. We have a shelter in place warning with no unessential exceptions. At least I can work in my own gardens and walk the dogs in the neighborhood.
