Hi Everyone! You know what today (tomorrow) is...
IT'S RUBY TUESDAY!!
I posted a group of these flowers for SOOC Sunday yesterday and nobody knew the name of them.
I don't know the name either so I posted this one flower (and used MULTIPLY in Adobe photoshop 7).
**I hope someone will be able to tell us the name...

what a lovely bloom but sorry, i don't know the name.
Looking forward to this meme every week...thanks for hosting!
Mary, those look like tulip leaves and the center of the flower looks tulipy to me. A hybrid tulip is my best guess.
Beautiful, both the header and the post.
Mary, with the help of Judi's comment, I typed
"red hybrid tulip images"
into Google Images.
I found:
Hybrid Tulips vs. Species Tulips
The post seems to imply Tulipa linifolia, which is a species tulip.
This is my first time joining this meme, I hope you enjoy my entry.
Spring is here, a lower in bloom always a stylish ruby!
Lovely flower! I have no idea what it is, but it's beautiful.
lovely flower but i don't know the name either...
I don't know either, but they're very pretty.
PS Love the new blog look, but it's making your blog VERY sluggish.
lovely tulipx beautiful red!xlynda
Just realised it is not a tulip, it is a flower we used to have in DubaiUAE...it is a cactus l think!xlynda
We call them parrot tulips. They are smaller than ordinary tulips, and well suited for our rough climate.
Beautiful shot.

I came to say 'Hi from Casablanca!'
I'm really behind visiting all the blogs but I hope to catch up next weekend!
Have a great week!
ps. I have local red taxis on my today's posting:

Sorry, I don't know the name of the flower, but it does look like some sort of lily. Not much help, I know!

Lovely Ruby Mary!
Beautiful capture! I just love flower pictures!
Wonderful picture my friend. It is a beautiful flower :)
It's beautiful and I'm glad to know what it is now! Be back tonight or in the morning with my RT post :)
Lovely shot! And I really like your new banner photo - it reminds me of a Ruby Tuesday post of mine from not long ago: http://iwishiwereaphotographer.blogspot.com/2010/02/ruby-red-anemones.html
wish I knew, but its sure pretty!
Probably Leora got it right, I'm still scratching my head.
Love the lighting!
I never know what flowers are called
this one is really pretty
A beautiful flower for another bright red day!
it's really pretty! Mine's up here
Doesn't it belong to lilies?
Nostalgic Marveling
Lovely red flower, Mary. I think it;'s a species tulip. This would be about the right time for them to be blooming in your part pf the world.
Lovely flower! It looks like it belongs to the family of lilies.
My entry's up anyway. Happy RT everyone!
Hi Mary -- that flower looks tropical! Like something we'd see down here in FL Maybe it's just the color that makes me think that; beautiful whatever its name is.
looks like tulips to me! Beautiful flower
Great looking flower, but I have NO idea what it is. I'll be "Digital Flower" will know if she's posts tomorrow.
That a beautiful shot of I Don't Know What.
Thanks for the beauty, though.
Hi Mary, happy red Tuesday to you! That flower is beautiful and what a sharp marcro. I don't know what the flower is either, but...it has similarities to a Tulip in leaf, flower and center.
regards,
Eaton.
Ooooops, sorry, I clicked enter twice. Both links work tho. :))
Greetings from Juneau, Alaska!

It looks like a wildflower to me... but whatever it is, it is so beautiful and springlike. Thanks for sharing. :-)
What a simple, yer gorgeous flower :)
It's so nice to see colorful flowers now after this long winter !
I don't know what is the name of this pretty red flower. Hope someone can tell us.
I have many unidentifiable items on my RT post - dried seafood. Do you know we can eat seahorses?
I love the red poppies in your header photo, too. Gorgeous! Have a great day!
I am pretty sure that is a tulip, fully open. The leaves sure look like that. Some tulips have pointy petals. Actually I have tulips for my post today. Come visit if you have a chance:

So where was the header photo taken? I've never seen that kind of poppy in fields in the USA.
Gorgeous flower. Sorry I do not know the name,
It's a lovely flower and nice shot!
I haven't been participating for a while. Pardon me. But today, am back! :)
Hope everyone can take a peek at my entry today. Thanks!
Very pretty. Looks like some sort of variety of daylily.
Gorgeous red bloom .. not sure what it is though, sorry!

First off, really love the poppies in your header. But alas, I don't know what kind of bloom this is. I'd be curious to know, though!

I grew them in Singapore, and it also grows in New Zealand.
