Discovered these in our local trust estate garden (formally Airfield Estate now open to the Public). The colours were very vivid and spectacular.

Wonderful color! I've heard of Parrott Tulips but have never seen any other than in garden catalogs. Great capture!

As you know I love my flora. That is beautiful. I have never seen Parrott Tulips either. Thank you for sharing.
Why not make some duplicates and play with cropping different parts of this image?

Thanks Ingrid for your kind comments. I will in due course, take up your suggestion re cropping but for now I'm going to finish my pond and then get back to the course ( I'm way behind). In the meantime here's another picture taken in the same garden, hope you enjoy.
Eddie.

Absolutely brilliant, Eddie! I can see why they're named as they are.
