Colour inspiration modification

Isn't this just gorgeous? 

It's an ice cream tulip. 

Re: my post of a couple of days ago, with the burgundy and acid yellow/lime chrysanthemums as inspiration for a quilt colour way-I like this version better.  I'm not a 'pink' girl as a rule, but seeing they green blend into a hint of yellow, then pink, with a fluffy white crown, I think I may try!

Such a shame that tulips are so short lived.  These must be a new variety as three bulbs are around £8. Not quite back to the C17 tulip mania, but too much for my pocket as you would want more than three!
