Spring at Araluen Botanic Park..

 

We almost didn't make it this year, we were a little late to visit the Yates Spring festival at Araluen Botanic Gardens. We did however rally on Monday and with my sisters went to see the gorgeous display of 150,000 tulips, usually planted by the garden staff and many volunteers but because of Covid the gardeners put in a momentous effort to get the bulbs planted in time. Not only tulips but thousands of other spring flowering bulbs.. a sight to behold. There was no tiptoeing through the tulips  rather a stroll.. under the magnificent tall trees where the air is fresh and clear is always an uplifting experience. Happy Thursday, take care and stay safe.. 🌷

  5. Dearest Grace,
    You seem to have gone there JIT = Just In Time.
    After all, the majestic view of such tulips in full bloom, is so short...
    Glad you captured some great photos of it.

  6. The colours are spectacular. That bloom in the fifth photo is quite unusual and gorgeous. The bubble photo is unique and gorgeous too.

  7. They look wonderful. Strange that the beds are roped. Who would really trample them down.

  16. A lovely spring display of colour. Tulips are so vibrant, and such pleasant shapes. I may have to go to the garden centre to get some bulbs so I can have my own display in the spring.

  27. A GREAT SPELL CASTER (DR. EMU) THAT HELP ME BRING BACK MY EX GIRLFRIEND.
    Am so happy to testify about a great spell caster that helped me when all hope was lost for me to unite with my ex-girlfriend that I love so much. I had a girlfriend that love me so much but something terrible happen to our relationship one afternoon when her friend that was always trying to get to me was trying to force me to make love to her just because she was been jealous of her friend that i was dating and on the scene my girlfriend just walk in and she thought we had something special doing together, i tried to explain things to her that her friend always do this whenever she is not with me and i always refuse her but i never told her because i did not want the both of them to be enemies to each other but she never believed me. She broke up with me and I tried times without numbers to make her believe me but she never believed me until one day i heard about the DR. EMU and I emailed him and he replied to me so kindly and helped me get back my lovely relationship that was already gone for two months.
