Yes, Zhirair, it seems none of us can see the pictures

Tulip "Belaya Vezha" (gr.5) with very nice shape of flower, resembling a rose, when it is close. Tulip "Lunny Svet" ("Moonlight"), attracting attention by its large ball-shaped flower center. Tulip "Yuri Dolgorukiy' (gr. 6) with rare shape for the group and tall up 15 cm blooms.
.... we would be very pleased if you could  post them again , please!

Maggi,

The trip was wonderful! We were right near the border of Armenia and Iran. I was in the far south of the country for the first time and came back with great impressions about the nature, which was seriously different than those in our region. Besides, I found many interesting and rare bulbs.

I've posted these pics to the Southern Hemisphere thread but thought they should go here too.
This is a tulip raised from Seed from the SRGC Seedex 2004 as Tulipa tetraphylla,

I was very lazy with moving the photos from the camera to the computer and resizing them. But I think this tulip is worth posting.

Another odd-ball totally green tulip 'Meza Skaistule' ('Forest Beauty'), bred in Latvia by J. Egle. I good companion and competitor to the Dutch variety 'Evergreen'. In garden is can look not bright, so a good background should be choosed. But it is perfect for flower arrangements. One of its serious advantages is extremely long flowering qualities - more than a month.

Zhirair,

Different!!  Something I'd grow just for the unusual qualities, but I rather like the form as well.  I think that would be quite interesting as a cut flower, and I can definitely see it being used in unusual flower arrangements.  Excellent!!  8)
Cheers.

Min winter temp -8 or -9°C. Max summer temp 40°C. Thankfully, maybe once or twice a year only.
