Tulip bulbs - the National Pride of Holland

Tulips are the national pride of Holland, and many view them as being the national symbol of the country. Millions of tourists visit the country during springtime every year. The famous Keukenhof Garden is a well-known tourist attraction. During spring, the tulip fields in the province of North-Holland (the Amsterdam area) are breathtaking and worth visiting. From the sky, the country looks like it's a big and colourful patchwork quilt. Tulip bulbs are native to Turkey and are Mediterranean plants. Carolus Clusius, an influential horticulturist and botanist, brought tulip bulbs to the Netherlands in the 16th century and they quickly became so popular that a real tulip mania began. During the Dutch Golden Age, tulip prices skyrocketed, and they became as valuable as the cost of a canal house in the centre of Amsterdam. Fortunately, tulip bulbs are more affordable now. You can even buy them online in bulk via our webshop. Be sure to take a look!
