One of the batches of tulips this spring at Mill Creek Park were huge with sort of floppy petals like this one. I don't recall seeing them before, but I sure like them! FYI, we're hitting the road to West Virginia in a few minutes and won't be home till late Wednesday. Internet access will be limited. See you when we get back (loaded with photos, hopefully)!

Exif: F Number: 5.6, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/400 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 400, FocalLength: 100.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi

This is so interesting. I have not seen a tulip like this and its my loss. What a gorgeous floral this is my friend. Beautiful purple so royal. Love that we can see the details of each petal.
Have a most wonderful Sunday. #10197553
