Tulip praetens 'Shogun'

Loving this little tulip.. so bright and cheery and double headed.  Wonderful

Sad to see the van and daughter head off this morning.. but looking forward to see the alterations made to it when we go north next. 

We finally saw our friends who we were meant to stay with a week after the first Covid lockdown. They stopped by for supper this evening en route between Somerset and York.  It was super to catch up with them and especially to drink their home made Seville Orange Gin!!  He has set up a still in his garage and I approve whole heartedly!!  It started the evening off well!!
