Three Garden Tulips
Three cup-shaped tulips of slightly different heights with slender leaves and a little grass beneath them — a tidy spring coloring page.
Three tulips stand side by side on this page, each at a slightly different height, with smooth cup-shaped blossoms of six rounded petals on straight stems. Long slender leaves rise from the base and a little grass grows beneath, giving the trio a neat, springlike garden look. The blossoms are smooth and simple with no fussy detail, so the page suits younger children well, while the set of three lets anyone try a different color on each flower. Tulips first became famous in the Netherlands, where they were once so prized that single bulbs sold for the price of a house. Classic tulip colors include red, pink, yellow, and purple, and you can happily mix and match a different one across each of the three. Print on US Letter or A4 and color a fresh little tulip patch of your own.
Coloring Tips
- Three colors — give each tulip a different shade so the row looks like a real mixed garden patch.
- Smooth fills — the cup-shaped petals are simple, so fill them in one even color for a clean tulip look.
- Ground them — a soft green on the grass and leaves anchors the three flowers to the garden.
