Crown Imperials and Tulips

I always forget what the orange flower is called and have to look it up every year. There's one section of Chicago Botanic Garden that has a large area filled with these mixed in other bulbs, Holland's Glory are the red ones shown here. Someday I'll remember Crown Imperials, Crown Imperials, Crown Imperials...

Thank you, everyone! I finally figured out why I think "Chrysler" every time I hear Crown Imperial. It seems they used to make a model named Imperial Crown, and I remember my aunt always drove Chryslers, nothing else. She must have had one that the name stuck with me. Maybe this will help me remember the name for next year!
