The first two pictures are of the third and final variety that I bought in Holland. It is called "Gavota" and is a darker purple than the "Negrita" and has a yellow stripe on the edge. The third picture is a tulip from one of the $1 pots that we bought at Wal-mart and even though it looks somewhat red it's actually pink.
The last picture is the view you see when coming up the driveway. I still say it's looks like candy! There is one tulip left that hasn't bloomed. We had a lone red tulip in our orchard that we transplanted along the driveway and I'm not sure if it's going to bloom this year or not. It's smaller and it may be a later variety or we may have just traumatized it too much! Time will tell.
