ParticipantA basic question – what is a tulip good for? I visited a tulip field nearby; it is neither as beautiful nor as fragrant as rose.

ParticipantI agree bsrsharma. Avid gardener here and big fan of roses. I also don’t see the big deal with tulips. Even bearded Iris is much more interesting and easy to grow. Roses look great in a desert type, xeriscape setting. Try that with a tulip it will look like a fake plant. I could see them being interesting in a highly ornamental garden. Somebody else’s.

Participant400 years from now there will be a website that will be discussing the Housing Mania at the turn of the 21st century…..
One guy will be saying ” I agree, but I don’t like that box style, it might look great in a desert setting, try that other one with a Hummer in front… Oh Gawd, it looks terrible, doesn’t it. What did they ever see in those things AND the prices that they were paying!! Wasn’t that NUTS ?”August 26, 2007 at 10:05 PM #81515HLS
