Can you imagine
planting your tulip bulbs in the fall and waiting until
spring only to find out the bulbs didn’t produce a
flower?
Wouldn’t it be
amazing if you felt secure that all your hard work resulted
in beautiful flowers? We are so confident in the
results of our product that we don’t need to offer a
guarantee.
Our goal is to
perfect tulip bulbs so they produce the best possible
results next season. The harvesting process,
handling, and optimal storage conditions of these tulip
bulbs is not only beneficial to our customers, but is of
vital economical importance to our own
business.
The better
we take care of our tulip bulbs the better results for
our next growing season. This treatment is the
same for both our retail customers as well as our own
business.
Bigger,
Stronger, Healthier Flowers

We harvest bulbs
every year to separate them into different sizes, store them
in perfect temperature and well ventilated controlled rooms,
and clean and throw out poor quality bulbs.
Bigger Bulb Size
Matters -You probably know
that bigger usually means better, but here’s why with tulip
bulbs. Separating the bigger bulbs from the smaller ones is
crucial because every grade or size has a different purpose
for the following growing season.
- The smallest
bulbs are planted for production only, meaning the
bulbs will grow bigger by the following year’s
harvest.
- The middle size
bulbs are used for planting stock as well as cut flower
production.
- The largest
sizes are best used for cut flower production and for
show in ones garden.
The bigger size
tulip bulbs produce the largest flowers because they contain
more food and energy to grow a taller plant and a larger
flower.
Stronger Because We
Baby Them - From the time our
bulbs are harvested we store them in the very best climate
controlled rooms, 24 hours a day, until the day we plant,
sell, or ship them. This makes a big
difference in the performance of the bulbs for the next
flower growing season. The climate controlled
period of perfect temperatures, ventilation, and humidity
control is the main reason our bulbs do so
well.
Healthier Flowers by
Preventing Diseases - Cleaning and
throwing out poor quality bulbs is the first step to prevent
diseases from spreading amongst the bulbs and in the
soil. Next
drying the bulbs within 24 to 36 hours after harvesting them
is absolutely essential to avoid mold and/or other
diseases.
Finally, proper ventilation during the storage period is a
crucial ingredient to prevent mold from creeping into the
bulbs.

see the reasons why our superior quality tulip bulbs are
