So beautiful. It has a sheen to it, like velvet.

This is a fine looking tulip here. However, I would liken the sheen of these pastel petals to silk. A lovely flower to behold, an artistic rendering. It would fit well in a gallery...

Beautiful tulip. Like shiny silk.
The tulips are one of the few who keep their attraction while aging.
Look at the little man surrounded by black maidens down under.
He will only reveal himself after a long time.
Nature's mystery.

Your tulips are nicer than my tulips. It must have something to do with you being on the right side of the mountain.
