Not common but always spectacular, a good yellow hyacinth is a glory of spring. This classic, named after a beautiful city in Holland, assures bright spring sunshiny color every day! Fragrance is just as strong as all the others, and the color is a wonderful spring surprise.Cith of Haarlem has another special quality many gardeners really love. It is much more "perennial" than most of the group, and in fact, this year, it won a coveted spot in the top five hyacinths tested by Cornell University in several locations for "staying power." City of Haarlem returned faithfully in upstate New York, and even in the South, for at least three straight years. That's a big deal for a hyacinth.
