On Thursday 3 October 2019, Keukenhof’s gardeners planted the first bulbs for the flower mosaic ‘World of Colors’. This marked the start of the planting of seven million bulbs for coming year’s display.
Keukenhof will have another, wonderful 50,000 tulip mosaic in 2020. The latter has been planted in two layers to extend its flowering during the spring. The mosaic is 250 m2 in size. 50,000 bulbs were used: tulips, grape hyacinths and crocuses. Keukenhof is of exceptional importance to Dutch tourism. Annually, over 1 million visitors, from over 100 countries are received. 75% of these are from abroad. The principal countries of origin are: Germany, the United States, France, the United Kingdom and China. There has, in recent years, been a marked increase in the number of visitors from the United States, China, India and South-East Asia. The bulb sector in general, and tulips and Keukenhof in particular are determinative for the Netherlands’ touristic image. In 2020 Keukenhof will be open from 21 March – 10 May.
