Gorgeous tulips! My Mum grows tulips in her garden. I post a lot of flowers on my blog. I write letters to my son Seamus about the incredible gifts and insights cancer has given me. Drop by and take a look if you like. Melanie x

They are happy flowers 🙂 And I’ve also not seen purple tulips before 🙂
I remember years ago seeing field upon field of tulips! Yes – it was Holland! 🙂

  Oh, Netherlands…the home of all these beauties 🙂 I’m sure it’s quite something to see field and field full of colorful flowers. I’m surprised you’ve also never seen purple ones before. There are very common in Romania. Absolutely love tulips, they are the ultimate symbol of spring and always put a smile on my face 🙂

    I don’t see tulips much, if at all, here in SA, so maybe purple ones are “recent” – as in the last 20 years hahaha! 🙂

It’s never too much when it comes to tulips 😉 I like these flowers, they are really delicate. Some people say it represents the “the briefness of life”. But even in its decay, I find it interesting !

  I also adore them. So delicate and beautiful. I had no idea that’s what they symbolize. Thank you for sharing that with me! Indeed, they die faster than any other flower, but they are absolutely gorgeous ❤

    In Keukenhof Gardens, they had a small exhibits and the origin of the tulip was well explained, also the symbolism 🙂

    Thank you also for liking Le Chic En Rose facebook page 🙂 When I’m travelling soon I’ll probably put some photos up as I go along on the facebook page rather than do longer posts as it will be easier. I’ll write up the posts once I’m back and have access to my computer (really can’t get the hang of writing on my iPad!) I have also liked your facebook page too! 🙂

    Thank you so much! I just saw the notification. I’ve decided a few days ago to start the Facebook page of the blog as well, as I have some readers who don’t use WordPress. Is a good way to keep them informed 🙂 I think adding pictures on Facebook until you get back, is a great idea. I’ve installed on my tablet the WordPress app, and it seems okeish to use. I didn’t post anything from it though. I can’t wait to see more of your adventures. Hugs!

    Yes that’s why I set up the facebook page too Lucy as it’s much easier for non wordpress users to read my blog. Also this way family and friends who are interested can like my page and read the blog through there rather than me putting posts on my personal facebook page timeline. I think I liked your page twice once via my personal page and once as Le Chic En Rose – I have to remember to switch between the 2 pages! I have the wordpress app too on my iPad it’s fine for commenting and reading blog posts but haven’t tried to write a post through there yet. It will be much easier to load travel photos onto my Le Chic En Rose fb page whilst travelling! 😃

    Indeed, it’s easier for most people to use Facebook than any other online community. I actually watched a video yesterday about this. It looks like people using Facebook and Twitter, don’t really want to leave those pages, to look at something else, so not much traffic comes from such social networks. Very interesting, but a good promoting tool, for those actually interested in your content.
    I actually used once the app for writing, and it works pretty good. What I had problems with, after posting, was keeping the paragraphs in the way I’ve designed them initially, as the text was all over the place 🙂 Still, for a short post, I believe it should work. 🙂

    That’s useful to know Lucy as I might try doing some short posts whilst I’m away – we’ll see it may just be easier to do the photos via fb. I certainly think it would be more tricky to do a detailed post with lots of information and frustrating if the format doesn’t work the way I want it to! Thanks though for the advice 😃

    WordPress made a lot of changes lately, so it might work better now. I can’t tell as I didn’t try it lately 🙂 However, if you want to post only an image and a few words, the format should be fine regardless. Good luck and let me know if you need any help. I’d gladly assist 🙂 x

    Thanks Lucy learning all the technology has been the hardest part for me though I’ve really learnt a lot in the past few months! I always do the upgrades whenever I get notified on my iPad so my WordPress app is the latest one I will have to experiment! Photos and a few words are all I was planning to do whilst away – we have a lot of family commitments and will be very busy! Thanks for the offer of help really appreciate it 😃
