High winds today wiped out the tulips

The wind blew off most of the tulip flowers, so I guess I will go trim the stalks but keep the leaves to feed the bulbs. At least I have my red geraniums planted to make up for the loss of the tulip flowers!

I'm going to begin acclimating (hardening off) some of the tender plants (tomatoes, ipomea, impatiens, begonias)  by bringing them outside for the day. In a few days, they will be ready to stay outside.
