If ever you visit Belgium - I'll gladly be your guide to get a glimpse at our specialities...  ;D not horticultural I'm afraid...  ::)

Probably a "staminee tour", but very recommendable of course  ;D ;D ;D

Luit van Delft, right in the heart of the beautiful flowerbulb district, Noordwijkerhout, Holland.

Sadly Luit died on 14th October 2016 - happily we can still enjoy his posts to the Forum

Arda,
very well documented. Indeed many tulips change color during flowering.
Do you know your Tulips cultivar name?



Yes. Tulipa Shirley.

So, Luc, you see why Luit has the Title "Dutch Master", eh?  ;)

Fermi, Jamie, Ashley, Paul, Joakim, Robin,
thanks for the compliments. It was me a pleasure.

Luc,
I'm pleased you want to guide me for a tour in Belgium. ;) Isn't it now asparagus time?! Asparagus with boiled and chopped egg yolk, egg white and chopped parsley together with melted butter... hmm, so delicious. :P And as dessert fine handmade pralines and butter cookies from Antwerp. Fantastic! :P :D

Zhirair,
to see T. clusiana cashmeriana was also a big surprise for me. It is very attractive when grown in masses. You can get an image of sizes comparison from a picture of the species beds.
Regrettable that you didn't receive what you've ordered and that on top a species got virused. :'(.

The only tulips with virus I've seen were in Hortus Bulborum. Old Rembrandt tulips which are still cultivated separated from the other cultivars.

Janis,
some of your hybrids greigii x vvedenskyi look very promising! 8)
And, I'm sorry can't help with your "unknow" tulip identification.

Many thanks to you Armin and you Janis, for these marvellous pictures. Goodeness Armin, what a wonderful time you had! All these photos demonstrate to me what I feel is the epitome of "Dutchness," everything clean, neat, tidy and in excellent health. Lessons to be learned, for an untidy gardener like me.

Your well informed Armin, I admire your excellent taste !  ;) But after that I think me might need some of our more liquid specialities to wash it all away...   ::) :P

Lesley,
indeed it was a wonderful time. Thanks to Luit's excellent guidance he showed me the nicest parts of Holland right at the best time. :D

The Netherlands are one of the most populated and also industrialized areas in Europe - alike Germany, almost every square meter of ground is influenced / changed by human activities. It looks perfect to be a epitome but almost no room left for wild nature, only small islands remained. :'(
Sometimes I wish to be able to turn the time back :-[ :-\

Luc,
no problem to wash it away with liquid specialities. As Belgium has a long brewery tradition like in Germany I think I will have no problems of adaptation...  ;D
