    Shaw— Those are tulips. They look a bit weird, don’t they?

    Not weird, they just could use a tall vase to help keep them more upright. :D

    They certainly look unusual, but they are beautiful!

    Those tulips are an old style here. Look at this 17th Century painting with the old-fashioned vase:

    ooohhh, at first when i was looking at them (yours and even this old painting) it had an Iris look to the blooms, but it also didn't, which is how I got confused and I'm WAY off what I thought it was in my head anyway but that's nice!
