Parrot tulip bud
Parrot tulip bud
IPA Nature/Flowers winner!
International Photography Awards 2023
One of my homegrown tulips. This variety is called a Rainbow Parrot. As the bud unfurls into feathery petals, the subtle muted colors saturate into vivid purples, reds, greens and yellows.
I love flowers at every stage of their life cycle, from bud to full bloom to fading bloom. This somewhat sculptural image captures the moment before the bud bursts open. I like to think of nature's energy intensifying within it.
The parrot tulip is said to symbolise true love.
