Every spring since 1949, top horticulturists in the Netherlands have planted around 7 million bulbs here in displays that change annually. The variety of flowers and colors are overwhelming. Tulips are the most famous of Dutch bulbs and careful planting of early, regular, and late flowering bulbs ensure that tulips are usually seen for most of the two-month season.
