Fred,
I always admire your wonderful photographs of exceptional high quality. They make an impression as if you see the things in the mirror. Suppose you have very good professional camera.

Here is Tulipa (Amana) edulis photographed 2 days ago in my sandbed. It seems this species has a disposition to turn upwards. Nevertheless outside much prettier than inside -
see last pic!

When we see Tulips in the wild in Turkey they're not often growing in turf like that -  is this more common in Crete, Tony ?
