Fringed Tulip - Like The Frosting on a Cake!

I saw this flower on a walk around town. Don't know what it is, but it is one of the most beautiful and unique flowers I have seen. The white spikes on the end of the petals is like the frosting on the cake. It puts the finishing touch on the unusual flower. I just couldn't resist taking an image of it home with me. So I now share it with you. :)

Note: I learned that the flower is called "fringed tulip" (Thanks Walt) - http://www.theplantexpert.com/springbulbs/Tulip7Fringed.html

Wow, if it was winter I might think it was ice frost! Frosting on the cake is a great description.
Cliff Harvey 07-May-2015 05:51
I agree with the person above, it does look like a really exotic tulip... Is it in someone's garden? If so, knock on their door and ask...! If in the local park, then give the Parks & Rec people a call and ask... Then when you find out, please share that information with those of us who are just as curious (now) as you are...!
