Tulip flowers in the rain

What do tulip flowers do when it rains?
Blooming bulb on a rainy day
On a rainy day, tulips flowers close their colourful petals, so stamen and pistil inside the tulip flower stay dry.
It’s not that a tulip can take a walk to look for shelter 
Yet flowers are much more than seemingly motionless creatures!

Crocus flower

It feels like summer here, so I am ready to dig into my spring bulb pictures which I didn’t publish yet and start uploading them on pictures of tulips… So here comes for some other spring flowers!
Crocus flowers
Most crocus flowers are very early spring flower bulbs, sometimes you can even find a crocus in the snow Normally a crocus will bloom long before Easter.
The grass like crocus leaves show a typical white line all along the center of the leaf. These days you can still get crocus flowers at your local florist, although I do prefer them in my garden before other plants start growing: let nature run its course
The most common crocus is the Crocus sativus producing saffron! Unlike the "normal" crocus, saffron blooms in autumn. Now don’t start eating your spring crocuses at home nor in your garden, as they are poisonous!
