Planting tulip bulbs

Tulips are spring-flowering bulbs and can be planted from October to December. If you plant the tulip bulbs in the autumn, you will enjoy the beautifully coloured flowers in the spring, in March, April and May.

Different types of tulips

We offer a wide range of tulips. There are single and double tulips, fringed tulips, naturalising tulips, lily flowering tulips and the striking parrot tulips. But also early- and late-flowering tulips, so that you can enjoy this well-known flower from March through May. To make your choice, you can use the filter; for example, choose the bulb size, flowering period, colour, group or height. Tulip bulbs can be planted manually in the ground. But in case of mass planting, you can also opt for machine planting.

History of the tulip

The tulip is inextricably linked to the Netherlands. The Dutch climate is excellent for forcing and growing tulips. Although we consider the tulip a typical Dutch flower, the tulip is not originally from our country. The roots of the tulip lie in Turkey. The arrival of a cargo of tulip bulbs in Antwerp in 1562 marked the beginning of European tulip cultivation. The first documented specimens were planted by the Fleming Carolus Clusius in the Hortus botanicus in Leiden. He cultivated the bulbs to do research on them, but the tulip bulbs were not sold. After a burglary in the Hortus Botanicus, however, the tulip quickly spread throughout the Netherlands; the trade in tulip bulbs had begun. However, the prices asked for one tulip bulb were enormous. Not only the tulip bulb itself, but also shares in the bulb were traded. Often, people received a piece of paper stating that they were the owner. Eventually, the government intervened and normal cultivation and trade slowly developed.
