Dutch Tulip Days 2023 Presents 15,000+ Flowers to Highlight Tulips, Bicycles at Ambassador’s Residence


Flowers and bicycles are iconic images we associate with the Netherlands. Dutch Tulip Days, running now through April 7, at the Dutch Ambassador’s residence, are showcasing thousands of the colorful flowers. The tulips are placed thoughtfully on a variety of bikes, including e-bikes.

The Dutch are known for their expertise in horticulture and floral production. They export over 450 million tulip bulbs to the U.S. every year.
