When we arrived at school on Monday (3-24) we were greeted by emerged tulips! We think they emerged on Sunday (3-23). The students are very excited and were surprised that the emerged portions of the tulips were not entirely green, but had shades of red or purple blended in. We made models of the entire tulip plant using small balloons to represent the bulb, shredded gift packing material for roots (taped to the bulb), straws for the stem, green paper for the leaves, yellow pipe cleaners for the anthers and stigms, and red paper folded into an Origami paper cup for the flower.
