Silken, reflexed petals of lavender-blue open up from tight buds in May to produce the most perfect blooms on tulip ‘Bleu Aimable’, making this unusual tulip the star of spring borders and containers.  The colours become deeper and richer as the blooms mature. 

Acid-green foliage seems to intensify the purple hues and this stunning tulip works equally well with silvery-blue plants in the garden and in the vase.

Late-blooming tulip ‘Bleu Aimable’ is one of the last tulips to bloom, putting on an unmissable encore in the spring garden.
