Parrot Tulips

I have to say that I am not impressed by the two parrot tulips varieties that I purchased last fall. The first was a red double parrot tulip and then this candy striped one. The petals to be just look deformed. I do like the color combinations, just not the shape of the petals.

I think the standard shape of the tulip is more pleasing to the eye. These add a punch of color, but still shout, "I am a tulip". What do you think?
