Current state of the tulip fields in Holland
The flowers in the tulip fields are currently being removed by the growers. They are doing this to allow the energy to go back into the tulip bulbs. As a result, they grow the best quality tulip bulbs for which the Netherlands is so famous. We except most production tulip fields to be cut by the beginning of next week.
You can already order the fresh 2022 tulip bulbs. Now that the tulip flower has been cut, the tulip bulb will continue to grow. The first tulip bulbs will be harvested in June. From September, the bulbs are packed and shipped all over the world in October. Just in time for planting in October to December. Order the best quality Dutch tulip bulbs here.
