"Some History Of The Tulip"
Discovered some 400 years ago in Turkey and Asia, it wasn't until the
16th century that the first tulip bulbs were planted in Holland. Soon "Tulip-mania"
followed, a period of lively trading of the bulb
which for some time was considered an investment. Through years the
Dutch have successfully cultivated a large range of species and
cultivars with flowers of all shapes, sizes, colors, and fragrances.
