I am going on a coach trip to the Dutch Bulbfields on May 1 for 4
days. ( staying, I think, in "one of the Hollands") I like your
informative video!
Question; Do you think there will be any flowers to see then?
In my garden daffs are nearly over and tulips in bud.
I guess they somehow plant for succession.
What do you think?
I went on a cycling, Youth Hostelling holiday when I was 18 and still
remember the scent of the hyacinths as we cycled past. Can't remember
how early we went.

Some of our tulips are almost finished already. It's been warm and dry here for
the last two or three weeks. The weather is changing tonight to colder and
wetter.

There will still be flowers in the Keukenhof near Lisse.
I assume your coach will take you there. It's open until 18th May.

When I first moved to NL the place where I worked, near Noordwijk, was
surrounded by fields of hyacinths. Now the fields are gone and have been
replaced by housing estates.
