Tulip Test Gardens

Weather and Climate:
How Do They Affect the Tulip Garden
mm

To answer our question this week, "What reasons can you think of to explain why the gardens circled have not yet bloomed?" we turn to weather maps. They hold the key to many of the events we see in the tulip garden. Click on the tulip map to study a larger version. Then look at the weather maps below to compare and question how weather and climate can affect our gardens.
Minimum Temperatures April 15 - 21, 2007
Study the minimum temperature map above. Describe what the aqua-blue color means. This color drips and spreads across the map in an interesting pattern. What do you wonder about the pattern?
Average Temperatures April 15 - 21, 2007
The map of average temperatures also has an interesting pattern. How does it compare to the tulip garden map? Write down your thoughts in your Tulip Garden Journal >>
