This flower is called Fringed Elegance. This flower was part of the Albany Tulip Festival, which comes to Albany every May. These particular flowers were my favorite, because of the fringe.
2 yrs ago I went on an Alaskan Cruise. It was on the Princess Cruise Lines. I had gone w/a small group from Wildwood. The ship we were on was called the 'Sun' Princess. This was one of the stops.
