Tulips from the greenhouse
The tulips used for the picking garden come from the greenhouse. You can also grow tulips in water. The bulbs are then pressed onto pegs. It is very important that the bulbs are watered immediately. Specially made machines take care of that. The bulbs are placed in a cooling chamber. There, too, they receive sufficient water to prevent them from drying out. After about three weeks, the tulip bulbs leave the cold store and enter the warm greenhouse. The bulbs now have no soil from which to draw their nutrients. Therefore, growers have added nutrients to the water.
After about three to four weeks, the bulbs have grown into sturdy tulips. They are ready to be picked in the picking garden! In short, Saturday 6 April will be a cosy and especially colourful day in Dorpshart Lisse! Will you come too?
Hope you will also visit the tulip picking garden in Lisse!
