Thanks for asking - now it can be reported - the bulb company - VanBourgondien - just shipped the replacement - 1,000 Mrs. John Scheepers tulips (bright yellow). No charge. No charge for shipping. No one at the company could think of a reason the bulbs I received last year were marked Mrs. John Scheepers, but were, in fact, a different variety, and according to the customer service rep, nobody else complained of receiving the wrong variety.

While admitting no wrong, the fact that they replaced $300 worth of bulbs (my cost - I order wholesale from them) says they know there was a problem somewhere.

The replacement bulbs just arrived and will go in the ground as soon as I can pull up the vinca, move the brugmansia and get a guy here to till the bed. NEXT spring - a sea of yellow tulips!
