Have any of you been to Holland for tulip season? I know I have some readers who are from the Netherlands. The photos I have seen online are beautiful, but I would love to hear more about it.
This week, we visited Cheekwood, an outdoor botanic garden in Nashville, for the tulip festival called Cheekwood in Bloom. It was fantastic! So many colorful flowers. I wish they would stick around for another month so we could enjoy them a few more times. We had two days of major storms, including some historic flooding, but the tulips survived. Sadly, though, they are on their way out.

I live in the Netherlands and have never been to the Keukenhof, but last year we drove to some other tulip fields (and other fields with bulb flowers) to watch. I am 32 and that was the first time in my life😀.

I’ve never been there, but those pictures are beautiful! Hope you had a wonderful time! You should post a pic of Little Buddy soon!

Those tulips are gorgeous. We have a great grandfather who was born in The Netherlands. We have never been there. Wishing you and your family a Happy and Blessed Easter.

I live in the Netherlands. Yesterday the weather was gorgeous and, with 3 friends, we cycled to the “bollenstreek” (the area where daffodils, hyacinths and tulip are grown). We saw some gorgeous colours and the smell of the hyacinths… I go every year and I’m always amazed by the beauty of it.

Beautiful photos! And thankfully, there’s no need to go to the Netherlands. There are gorgeous tulip fields near Seattle: maybe some day you’ll have the chance to visit!
