 TULIPS are so wonderful at this time of year. They're everywhere. And local varieties are very reasonably priced. Of course, sumptuous Dutch tulips and parrot tulips, as well as other exotic varieties and colours are also available at more upscale florists. A little more expensive, but worth the splurge. Don't skimp on them. Normally sold as a bunch of 10 stems, but purchase at least 5 bunches of 10 stems, especially if you're hosting a party or have been invited round for dinner. Be generous. Depending on where you buy, prices will vary from $40 (local varieties) at your corner bucket shop (for 50 stems) to slightly more at your favourite florist. However, your favourite florist will wrap them more beautifully and thoughtfully for a hostess gift or even offer to loan you the perfect vase to display them at your dinner party.
