Joe asked:

>Does this bulb come in pink or white, how about yellow?


Tulipa clusiana chrysantha should be yellow, bright yellow when the flower
is open and with a ruddy smudge on the outside of the outer tepals.

What color are yours? 

The other clusiana variants I've seen run to red and white or pink and
white.

Montgomery County, Maryland, USA, USDA zone 7, where Tulipa clusiana
chrysantha planted thirty years ago still sends up foliage but rarely blooms
because in the interim the garden has grown up around it and it is now in
the shade.
