Yup, this is what they look like after they've opened up to the sun, they go all star shaped. Most people think of the classic amsterdam tulip look of the single tight bulb on the end of a stalk. But when they want to be pollenated, they open right up. Unfortunatly this doesn't happen in a vase, they die before this happens.
