Greetings @incublus ,

How very kind of you to bring us this very thorough gardening post....lovely photographs! What makes gardening worth it....is as you described that moment after the work is done when you said.....

'Yes, gardening is really tiring, but once you finish, you feel a great sense of satisfaction. There's nothing like the pleasure of sitting back with a cold drink and enjoying the view after the work is done.'

Such an enjoyable post...thank you.

To answer your query with regard to colour choice of Tulip in your post....the splendid cerise pink tulips.

Kind Regards, Bleujay
