Taken at Floriade, the annual planted flowers show in Canberra. Too many tulips for my liking!

Hehe, at least there are some other flowers too. Are those pink flowers hyacinths? Looks like a lovely park!

@purelysnow: Yep, hyancinths, and tulips, and pansies and violets - can't say I like any of them, but they are pretty nonetheless.
Very gorgeous shot Sidonie!! Love how you framed it. So you're saying there is such a thing as too many tulips?! LOL

@amy: In this part of the country, definitely. Tulips are a legacy of the large Dutch settlement here after WWII. Sixty kms down the mountains to the coast, and the subtropical vegetation of ferns and frangipani reappears, and that's MY sort of flower. I dunno, tulips are so CULTIVATED!
WOW!
