BbqHoorn's video: Holland Tulips - Tulpen

@Holland, Tulips - Tulpen
Flower bulb cultivation is an economic activity in the provinces of North Holland, South Holland and Flevoland. The colourful flower fields that have come to symbolise Holland can be seen in these areas around April-May. The Netherlands are the world's main producer of commercial tulip plants, producing as many as 3 billion bulbs annually, the majority for export. Tulips are spring-blooming perennials that grow from bulbs. Depending on the species, tulip plants can be between 4 inches (10 cm) and 28 inches (71 cm) high. The tulip's large flowers usually bloom on scapes with leaves in a rosette at ground level and a single flowering stalk arising from amongst the leaves.Tulip stems have few leaves. Larger species tend to have multiple leaves. Plants typically have two to six leaves, some species up to 12. The tulip's leaf is strap-shaped, with a waxy coating, and the leaves are alternately arranged on the stem; these fleshy blades are often bluish green in color. Most tulips produce only one flower per stem, but a few species bear multiple flowers on their scapes. The generally cup or star-shaped tulip flower has three petals and three sepals, which are often termed tepals because they are nearly identical. These six tepals are often marked on the interior surface near the bases with darker colorings. Tulip flowers come in a wide variety of colors, except pure blue (several tulips with "blue" in the name have a faint violet hue). The flowers have six distinct, basifixed stamens with filaments shorter than the tepals. Each stigma has three distinct lobes, and the ovaries are superior, with three chambers. The tulip's seed is a capsule with a leathery covering and an ellipsoid to globe shape. Each capsule contains numerous flat, disc-shaped seeds in two rows per chamber. These light to dark brown seeds have very thin seed coats and endosperm that does not normally fill the entire seed. NOTE TO VISITORS Unless stated otherwise, a typical Dutch flowerbed is NOT a public ''pick your own'' place that you may be familiar with in many other parts of the world. Do respect the farmers' property, and stay off the fields. Locations: Schermer, Benningbroek, Bobeldijk, Nibbixwoud, Twisk, Abbekerk, Zuidermeer, Benningbroek, Binnenwijzend, Zuidermeer, Binnenwijzend, Benningbroek. April - May 2015 & 2016 Tulips featured (including but not limited to): Yokohama, Pako, Abra, Strong Gold, Inzell, White Dynasty, Dynasty, Escape, Pallada. Om de groei te versnellen worden tulpen met afdekfolie bedekt. Als de tulpen bloeien wordt het folie verwijderd, kort daarna worden de tulpen gekopt en enkele weken later de bollen gerooid. Speciale dank aan de bouwers die mij welwillend toestemming verleenden om op het land te verblijven. De Westfriese maker van deze video is afkomstig uit de periode van het handwerk (bollenrapen), in de voorbije jaren veranderde veel en niet alleen op het gebied van schaalgrootte en mechanisatie. Dat alles toont deze video evenwel niet. De focus ligt op de kleurenpracht en variatie. Living in ''New England'' (Rhode Island)?
