How appropriate, one of the some 120 cultivars of Parrot Tulip!
The pinks that I know of include "Fantasy", "Pink Panther", "Quasimodo", "Paradise"...
("Parrot" tulips are considered class 10, developed from late-flowering mutations crossed with class 3 "Triumph" tulips)

No, it's not fair! You are not allowed to have tulips until the rest of us can have them, too, and that's not until May!
