Tulip Fire?

Hi everyone,

I have a bed of tulips by my drive at the front of the house, they came up beautifully last year, but this year almost all of them have some distorted growth to one degree or another. The worst of them basically look rotten. Searching on the internet it looks similar to "tulip fire", do you agree or is it just the wet winter having an effect or something?

Thanks in advance for your help.

    i've never knowingly had tulip fire as I only grow the botanical ones so i checked on the RHS website and this is how hey describe it:-

    I suspect you may be right.
