My late husband planted these white tulips when we moved into this house 27 years ago. They are my favorite flower. This patch was once crammed full of these lovely stems. Over the years this is all that’s left. But, still they come every Spring to tell me that he loves me.

A Pulitzer for Julie K. Brown. Richly deserved, and overdue!
