The Tulips That Wouldn’t Give Up

I know you’re probably tired of seeing tulips by now… but I promise, this will be the last time I bring them up (at least for a while!). It’s just so hard to resist sharing them.

 

Two weeks ago, the tulips started blooming - and it was simply stunning - Oh these beautiful tulips....
A week ago, a snowfall hit the Denver Botanic Gardens and tried its best to destroy these delicate flowers - Oh, these frozen tulips...... but to my great relief, even the snow couldn’t defeat them!

Today, I visited the Garden again - and was greeted by a colorful tapestry of tulips. They survived!

Not only did they survive - they thrived. :) Of course, I couldn’t resist trying to capture their beauty once more.

Especially today, when the flowers were covered in dew. Thousands of tiny drops sparkled under the morning sun, turning the tulips into living jewels.

It was a particularly special walk - not just because of the dew, but because the flower beds were still bursting with tulips, filling the Gardens with that unmistakable spring magic.
That feeling when you’re finally sure: spring is really here.

Just look at them - vibrant, glowing, and full of life. It’s amazing how something so delicate can endure - and even shine brighter - after the storm.

Sometimes resilience is the most beautiful thing of all, isn’t it?

Thanks ChatGPT for helping me to find some good words ;)
