Thanks David, it's in danger of becoming an obsession! Lots more to come, hopefully.

Spring is arriving here,
These Tulipa agenensis, coastal form were sown in winter 2008 to flower now.
 This form used to be called T. agenesis ssp. sharonensis but now a synonym of T. agenensis.

Yes, it is a tulip, not one that I have seen in person so far. It is a very lovely  flower I think.

Ralph, Oron and Luc I have nothing but envy.

My T. neustruevae the first of the year.
Yemen, what a country ... Haraz mountains, Socotra, Sana'a, Hadramaut, the empty quarter.... a country of stunning, mind altering beauty...and the friendliest of people.
