Keukenhof III

And if it's tulips you expect, then it's tulips you get.

Spring sun illuminates the tulip beds. Note the silken purple flowers next to the iconic reds.

They don't all look like the three-petaled (petalled?), unidimensional lollipops I have drawn as a child. Nor do they come in three primary colours. Like other experiences in the world of grown-ups, they come in a bewildering array of shades, shapes and attitudes.
