Where's the Cthulhu Plush doll of seasonal renewal?

I'm looking for a "Spring Time" themed Cthulhu Plush doll.
I want a plush Cthulhu for every season. I have a Summer themed one, a Winter themed one, and an Autumn themed one, but I'm lacking a Spring themed one.
I swear I saw a "Farmer Cthulhu" plush doll years ago, which I felt would be a good Spring one (as a gardener, breaking out after the winter), but haven't been able to find one since. Googling has gotten me nowhere. What ideas or sources for a Spring themed Cthulhu doll do you have?
This is a hole in my life that needs* to be filled.
*For certain, very low, values of need.

Couldn't you get a non-themed Cthulu, and add a garland of flowers and/or or a basket of fruit, and a straw hat, or something? I bet all of those are available from toy or craft shops.

You could probably get someone to make you one on Etsy's Alchemy shop.

In the same vein as thinkingwoman, Etsy already has some more brightly colored Cthulhus.

Best answer: Though alas not a plush, here is Ursula Vernon's Garden Cthulhu for you to admire.

Response by poster: Thanks for the advise. I have the Summer Fun one as my summer Cthulhu; so I'm certain it's not the same.
I'm afraid that I'll go the route suggested by lollusc, which I had wanted to avoid. I really want to, after all, encourage the marketplace to produce a wide selection of plush Cthulhus!

It sounds like this was a Limited Edition plush from Toy Vault, much like their Blue Valentine, Dracula, and Valentino, and Summer Fun (possibly maybe you were thinking of this when you remember a farmer? that hat.) Cthulhus.
I can't find your farmer for the life of me. The most spring-like I could do is Graduation Cthulhu.
At worst you could email Toy Vault, confirm that they had a farmer plush, and then keep an eye out on ebay for it.
