The first real passion for tulips originates from the Turkish empire and dates back to before 1600, before the tulip was introduced in Holland. Especially the then Sultan of Turkey had a great love for the tulip and his favorite was the Lily-flowered Tulip.
Graceful slender shapely long Tulips with pointed curled petals. Like ballet dancers they stood dancing on long thin stems. These Tulips were called Needle Tulips and have unfortunately disappeared completely from the culture.
If you want to know more about the Tulip culture of the past in the Ottoman era, I recommend the audio tour at our do and experience park Land van Fluwel . Here, the entire history of the Tulip is told in a winding forest path.
Our Corps de Ballet mixture gives a good idea of the Tulip that the Turkish Sultan was so fond of. I can understand it, it is a picture from the Arabian Nights.

Planting and caring for tulip bulbs
Plant tulip bulbs in autumn in a sunny or lightly shaded position with well-drained soil. Place the bulbs with the pointed end facing upwards at a depth of approximately two to three times the height of the bulb. Leave around 8 to 10 cm between the bulbs.
Plant tulips in groups for a colourful and natural effect. They are also ideal for containers and make wonderful cut flowers. Allow the foliage to yellow naturally after flowering so the bulbs can store energy.
Read our complete guide to when and how to plant and care for tulip bulbs.
You can order tulip bulbs from us from early spring onwards for the following planting season. We deliver the bulbs in autumn so they arrive at the right time for planting.
Flowering time varies by variety. By combining early, mid-season and late-flowering tulips, you can enjoy tulips in bloom for much of the spring.
That depends on the effect you want to create. In our range, you can choose from shorter and taller tulips, cut-flower tulips, tulips for pots and a variety of tulip mixes.
We supply our tulips in the largest bulb size and with a flowering guarantee. High-quality bulbs give the tulip a strong starting point for growth and flowering.
It depends on the variety. Some tulips are reliable perennial bloomers and can perform well for several years, while others are mainly planted for their first spring display. Check the characteristics of the individual variety when choosing.
Yes. Combining early, mid-season and late-flowering varieties can extend the flowering period and bring colour to the garden throughout a larger part of spring.
