Always pink tulips for me. ::sigh:: I think it's my favorite flower! Yours sounds delightful though . . . and a little exotic : )!
Beautiful! And congrats to Colleen !
Last fall I "thought" I'd picked out white tulips at the nursery. But they came up yellow daffodils! Love the orange too!
Brenda
I would bring home pink tulips I have a passion for pink! Happy spring! Traci
Of course...I would LOVE pink tulips! And tulips are my absolute favorite flower but I DO love them in orange! Congrats to Colleen. Lucky, lucky girl. :)
Pink are my favourite!!
The orange is very pretty!

I love the orange tulips how delightfully different! I usually go for the deepest, darkest pink, but if I see something very unusual, I might go in that direction. Enjoy the extra sun your tulips will bring you!
They are beautiful! Perfect choice!
I LOVE nice surprises (thank-you!!!) I don't think I could pick a favorite color of tulips--they're all so joyful and happy! My middle daughter would certainly choose the ones you brought home with you--she's a redhead (or orange, as she always used to say!)...what a lovely spring sparkle they bring to your home!
Wishing you the most wonderful Sunday, dear friend...
Julie
Pink tulips would be pretty in my home right now! But the orange ones are lovely...congrats to the giveaway winner! Lucky girl♥
I would go white. Love yours, always a good color with turquiose.

Oh I am soo excited ...Thanks to SAKI SACKS, KORALEE & violets are blue random number generator!
p.s. I love that you got orange tulips from the stand!
THANKS KORaLEe!
Oooo, orange is my favorite color! I don't think I've seen orange tulips very often. So I definitely would've chosen them! They're so beautiful.
I've always loved tulips ... and any color is perfect! And I love marmalade ...
Your photos are always so appealing and whimsical. You have a true talent!
Hi Koralee!
Congrats to Colleen! What a pretty blog she has and now... such a pretty bag!
Your tulips really are the color of marmalade.
I read that the color orange stimulates creativity; it is also a healing color ~ so they were meant to go home with you!
Koralee, I do hope that you feel better soon. It's so good that you are able to stay home this week ~ Sending prayers your way for comfort, the best therapies and a speedy recovery.
Take care ♥ Koralee
Blessings always,
~ Maria
ps. Thank you for your kind words * and such a warm welcome to my sister!
I love the orange tulips with your turquoise blue pieces. Perfect color combination!
Oh, they look so summery. And I love red and white tulips like these: http://www.geneburch.com/gallery/d/1497-4/Red_White_Tulips.jpg
Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
oh Koralee I am soo excited!
so self absorbed I failed to realize you are still having back problems...they are the worst!
Talk soon.
Congrats to your winner! Tulips are my favorite...I often go for the white ones, but some days I want color-yellow, peach, bright red. A tulip puts a smile in my day! I love your orange ones!
What a nice surprise, they look lovely :)
I dont think I would have chosen any other colour sweet friend. Just perfect!
Love that color combination! Have a great monday! :-)
What a perfect way to start a Monday with orange tulip marmalade on toast and you sweet sunny smile!

These are beautiful. Tulips really are my favorite flower. I love a variety of colors, but will buy what ever is available, although I tend to gravitate to the pastel colored ones.
Have a wonderful week!
Blessings,
Marcia
Oh I just love orange flowers Koralee~ I would never wear orange, unless for fancy dress! But I do love orange blooms especially nasturtiums tumbling out of pots in the late summer.....Happy Days,
Love Sarah x
J'adore les tulipans roses et les blancs, j'aimerais avoir un beau jardin, et j'aurais sûrement des tulipans roses. Congratulations to the winner. Happy week and hello from spain under the beautiful sun.
Hi Koralee,
I love the orange tulips....great color combo!
Hugs,
Stephanie ♥
Those tulips are beautiful! And orange marmalade. Yum! I baked up some orange marmalade muffins recently. I can see that you have been up to making lots of sweet treats of your own. :) Have a fantastic week. Tammy
What a lovely surprise, have a great week x
congrats to the winner!! and your orange pictures are colouring my day!!!! Kisses
White or pink !!!..i like them the most...happy new week darling........love love love Ria....xxx...
I haven't seen orange ones either. I have yellow and red growing in my garden but i do love the pink ones to and the purple. There such a pretty flower. I do love the colours and the arrangements of your photo's they always bring a smile to my face. Have a lovely week, dee x
Love these orange tulips! The combination with your aqua background and stool is just perfect, such a happy color scale! Hope your monday is just as nice!
GOOD MORNING KORALEE!!!
Well my sweet, we are both back at school today, non? Your two weeks are up, my one week is over, and for the last 3 days, the pain in my hip subsided. WHAT HAPPENED, HOWEVER? Like you, I am in pain AGAIN and it is worst. When I got up this morning, my back AND hip were at it again. Funny thing, I was just laying in bed!!!! So yes, let's see what this first day back will bring!
On Saturday, I had a WONDERFUL friend over for lunch. She surprised me with a gorgeous small bouquet of daffodils with ORANGE TULIPS in the middle....oh they are glorious..but like you, I am not an ORANGE person. I LOVE PINK or WHITE TULIPS!!!! I think that a cropped and tight bunch of white tulips tied together like her bouquet with twine would be so gorgeous in my new little square glass IKEA vase...hmmmmm...!
I so hope you feel better TODAY my dear, dear friend!
MUCH LOVE et grosses bises, Anita
Isn't that the special beauty of tulips? Sometimes you just can't tell what that tight little bloom is going to reveal. And they're so crazy the way they keep growing taller and lankier as they open.
Amanda xx
they are so pretty- i always go for orangey corals and pinks if i can....
My favourite tulips are deep purple peaony tulips. I just love when they are so tall and floppy, wild ...
Interesting connection tulips vs marmalade hihihi : )
Love
Emelie
A mixing of colors... but I've never seen tulips sold that way. boo hoo...
DI
I am not sure why, but I just adore hot pink tulips. They just look right to me.
THE TULIPS ARE SO PRETTY, I GUESS I WOULD BRING HOME PINK, IF THEY GREW BLUE, I WOULD BRING HOME BLUE......
BUT...YOUR ORANGE TULIPS ARE SO PRETTY...... AND I LOVE MARMALADE AND TOAST....HAVE A GREAT WEEK. RIZZI
Sunny, Springy shots these are!
I brought pale pink back home this morning.
Enjoy your Monday morning cup, sweet Koralee!
Lots of love for the new week xxxx
Mmmm....toast with
orange marmalade and
orange tulips; what a
delicious combination.
I love tulips in all
colors and usually buy
two bunches in different
hues. One of my fave
combos is yellow and
purple! Happy day,
sweet friend!
xx Suzanne
a pretty surprise color! they are so happy, bright, and sunny :)
congrats to the winner...love the flowers!
Hi Koralee! I absolutely LOVE tulips. They start to show their colour in the garden now.
I hope things go better with your back soon.
Just read about it at Join my joy. I left a reaction right after yours, so that's why I saw it.
Hope you get better soon,
best wishes for a quick recovery!
Bye,
Marian
Just perfect! :0)

Definitely red ... they are probably my favorite. However, I do love your orange tulips -- very fun :) I tried making your cupcake liner flowers. They were a very fun project. I don't know if you saw my post about them or not. I also really enjoyed the article you submitted to the Where Women Cook magazine. Very nice!
Ah such beautiful, cheery flowers! I adore yellow tulips best but I would likely take any color home really :) I can't wait until the stands and markets start to open here too, fresh flowers in the house makes such a difference :)
Happy week my friend!

I love the color combination...beautiful!!

Yes, this sunny orange really is sweet to the turquoise!! I love white tulips, or pink and orange -but most all pretty colors together! Hugs from Eva

Rosa
Una foto a dir poco favolosa. Coloratissima e delicata, i tulipani sono meravigliosi :)

Soo pretty, need the bright colors! It's been raining non stop:-)
the orange is really lovely! i like the white and the pale pink but i just love flowers so no matter what the color i'd be happy! have a wonderful week! xo susan
Orange is really growing on me, Koralee. I am liking it more and more. I am not sure why. I particularly am loving orange and turquoise. Your pictures are so pretty. You could make me love anything!
Thank you so much for the sweet note on my blog. We have had a hard couple days and I appreciated it ever so much!
Big hugs,
Suz
Darling friend,
Oh, my first day back was SUPER. I am sure I had some friends praying for me because ALL went well. But my hips dearest, my hips are so sore...and like you said, I used to bounce right back after a day or two...not anymore! YIKES...well you know, I will be 53 this month..and I guess it is happening!!!!! BUT I DON'T FEEL IT OTHER THAN MY HIPS!!!! Well my sweet, therapy will help you. Oh, I hate to think of you being laid up like that! I so wish I could be in close proximity to you wonderful friends....I would bake you some FRESH HOMEMADE BREAD or a PIZZA...ahhhh....comfort food!
Well my dear, we only have 10 weeks left of school and I have so much to teach yet, but I think we are ready. The kids however, are spectacular children and I think the little sunshine that they got on their spring break trips AROUND THE WORLD helped them a bit!
Signing off now my friend...SEE YOU IN THE MORNING...Anita
I love the color of marmalade and I love the song lady Marmalade. hee-hee. That's the color I would have brought home. Have a lovely week, Koralee.
xo,
Sena
I have a soft spot in my heart for all tulips, because my dad had a green thumb and enjoyed growing tulips. I've also been to Holland (as a child), talk about beautiful tulips in a variety of colors. Have a great week. xx susan
Hi Koralee!
I would choose pink tulips, but I think yours are a pleasant surprise! I thought your pink and aqua bunnies were pure delight!
Blessings!
Beautiful!
I always seem to come home with white tulips.
Beautiful!!! What a nice surprise...:)
I would have come home with PINK, or white. But lately I might have to say yellow or red. IT might depend on what colors I had to choose from!!??? :)
I hope you are having a wonderful week..
xoxo Gloria
Hi Koralee,
Any coloured tulips are pretty, but red I think is my favourite.
I love your gorgeous orange flowers and the marmalade on toast...yum!
Happy week, dear friend
Hugs
Carolyn
Hi Koralee!
.·:*¨¨*:·.Sending you more get well wishes.·:*¨¨*:·.
thinking of you dear ♥
I so hope you are feeling better today dear Koralee.....Anita
I so hope the orange tulips will help to make you feel better . Orange is our national colour . Our dutch royal family is called
Van Oranje by last name and our national soccerteam has orange for their shirts .
The fans are dressed up in orange and when they play europian ore worldcup people decorate whole streets with orange flags .
So ... you know now ...orange is our colour !
Best wishes for you sweet friend
I love this! It's funny how I keep seeing the most beautiful shades of orange lately. It's not a color I used to notice much, but I'm falling in love with it. I think the oranges against the blues in your pictures are absolutely gorgeous and makes me want to go create something pretty!
Thank you for your ever inspiring posts! So thankful for them :D
~:Diana xo
Beautiful tulips!
I just love simple bright red ones, or those with coloured tips.
Congrats to the lucky winner of your giveaway!!
Have a lovely day Koralee!
Your marmalade tulips are beautiful! I would love these or yellow ones.
Hello!
Always so beautiful pictures here!
I would pick ORANGE!! It's my husband's very favorite color!! :) I found out recently (from our dear friend, Saskia) that it was a favorite of Frank Sinatra, as well. :) Who knew!!!
Enjoy the end of your week, Koralee. BLESSINGS!!
prettiest orange ever!
