Bleu Aimable 
City of Haarlem 
The Darwin Tulips are noted for their large 
substantial cup-shaped flowers on strong tall 
stems. The colors include all shades of pink and 
red to nearly black maroon. The slaty-blues and 
blue-violets approach closely to blue. Among the 
newer varieties are some wonderful white and 
yellow sorts but the Cottage Tulips are usually 
called on to supply the yellow shades. 
The numbers 1, 2, 3 and 4 indicate relative time 
of flowering, those numbered 1 being the earliest.
