This is such a unique Tulip, I think they are called Parrot Tulips. They aren't quite open yet, but the colours are so beautiful.These were also at the tulip fields at Woodburn, Or. when Sheri(auroraobers) and I went on our photo shoot. Thanx for any comments. Enjoy!

Verena - The crimson tulips in the foreground are beautiful. The frilly, curly edged parrot tulips are striking. (We had a number of parrot and flame tip tulips - until the voles noshed on the roots and bulbs :-( ) A very nice close up shot. Thad

It looks delicious...like a huge piece of marble ice cream on a stick. LOL. Very pretty, and very well presented. Gorgeous image, Verena.

Great composition, Verena. The purple tulips in the foreground really complement the parrots well.
