The demure tulip

I didn’t really know what we were getting in the bag of tulip bulbs I bought in November, the very last one I could find for sale, so no choice in colors, but I thought this was a nice one. In fact, they’re all beautiful!

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

The perfect title for this shy tulip. Lovely color combination of the yellow with the bluish green.
