Dutch Flower paradise open for season
KEUKENHOF, Holland--Outdoors, the bulbs are only in bloom eight or nine weeks each year, but they’re cultivated in glass houses year-round. For the two months that Keukenhof is open to the public, a grand display of 500 different varieties of tulips, daffodils, hyacinths and other bulbs can be seen. The annual international flower parade takes place April 16. This year’s theme is “Germany, the Land of Poets and Philosophers”. Approximately 800,000 visitors come to see the flowers at Keukenhof every year. Around 20 percent of the visitors come from Germany. (Courtesy photo)
