Glowing red
The mystery tulip has opened, and it's such a bright red color, it almost glows! This was yesterday.
And here it is today, opening up to show a black center spot surrounded by a yellow ring.

Hi Salix, so nice to see you posting again. The red tulips are wonderful, they stand out so against the mostly yellow, blue and whites of the flowers of this time. A happy surprise from a mixed bag. :-)

Silvia, it was great to see you back blogging ~ your tulips are beautiful. I'm curious to see photos of the tulips in the mixed bag. The tulip from the moon is beautiful:) It is so good to see Forget-Me-Nots again!! And then there's the Magnolia blooms. Spring is definitely there!
Oh, what beautiful tulips! They practically sing Spring.
:-)
Kate, none of the other tulips are blooming yet, their petals are still closed up tight. I'm curious too, especially about that freaky twisted "moon" one, looks cool already, even not open yet.
