Remembering Tiny Tim Again



The performer known as Tiny Tim was born eighty-five years ago on this day of April 12, and ultimately died on November 30th in 1996. This is a fact that I've referenced in prior posts here on Blogger (including one I published last year) where I've featured a copy of the mini video (from the collection in my Vimeo Library) which is featured a top this entry.

Now, in honor of his birth anniversary, I've posted it again and am accompanying the mini movie with an update on how the tulip bulbs Juan V (JV) and I planted this past December are doing. My last reference to them was nine days ago (April 2) and they have made a lot of progress since them, as evidenced by the aerial photo of my garden which I took the other day.

"WIOB'S" STORIES ARE SET IN MY GARDEN

Many thanks to Martha B for opening the hatch leading to the rooftop of the building where I live. It is much too heavy for yours truly to manage and I wanted to take an aerial shot of how my garden is looking in these early days of spring 2019. As you can see, the tulip bulbs that were planted this past December, as well as in bygone years, are "waking up" from their winter's nap and nearly ready to show their flowers.

I have a wide variety of them and the ones in this PARTIAL VIEW of my place are members of these families: Spring Green, Day Dream, Red Riding Hood and Elegant Lady; these four types are late spring bloomers.

The following set of images are screen shots of what they hopefully look like when they bloom.






The Elegant Lady variety is featured in 2018 entries on my blog and I plan to write about the other types that I've just mentioned when they bloom.
Over the years I've had NUMEROUS kinds of tulips (understatement) and they have been included in posts here on Blogger. Moreover, over several tulip varieties are discussed in volume one of my Words In Our Beak book series.
