Keukenhof Spring Garden 1 May 2019

2 May – Tulips at Keukenhof are blooming and production flower fields are gone

While in Keukenhof Spring Garden the tulips bloom beautifully, the tulip farmers have removed all tulip flowers from the flower fields. The tulip farmers remove the flowers to grow the best quality flower bulbs. There are still some flower fields left but mostly at tulip farms who are open for visitors.


Current state of the flower fields in Holland

As indicated above, most production flower fields are gone. The tulip farmers have removed the flowers so that the energy can go to the flower bulb and thus the best quality flower bulbs are grown. More information about why the flowers on the flower fields are removed.

Blooming of the flowers at Keukenhof Spring Garden

The blooming of the tulips at Keukenhof Gardens is a bit different from the blooming of the tulip fields. The flowers at the spring garden have been specifically chosen to ensure that blooming flowers can be seen from the opening (21 March) to the closing day (19 May). Also, the tulips are not removed during peak blooming so the tulips and other flowers can be admired till 19 May in Keukenhof. Right now the tulips are blooming beautifully at Keukenhof Spring Garden
