Lily flowering tulips really do look like lilies

You might remember that I’ve posted some photos of what are called Lily flowering tulips. Some of their petals are longer than the rest and when the tulip is just beginning to open it had an unusual yet lovely appearance.

The lily flowering tulip is most lily like when it’s fully open … this one is just about done it’s bloom and is staying open all the time. Wouldn’t you have mistaken it for a lily if I hadn’t told you it was a tulip?

If you have a garden make sure you look at your plants and flowers every few days so that you can see how they change as they age. I find it very interesting!

    They definitely look like a lily and I made the mistake in our University. My wife was admiring them and I told her that they were lilies but then I realised that they were tulips.
