The Netherlands celebrates its national holiday today! Congratulations 
Tulips hold immense cultural, historical, and economic significance for the Netherlands, and play a key role in the global trade of flowers, in which the Netherlands is the world’s largest exporter to over 100 countries. The country’s Aalsmeer Flower Auction is the largest flower trading centre in the world and Keukenhof Gardens attracts over 1 million visitors a year, showcasing millions of tulips.
Tulips have inspired Dutch art for centuries, appearing in paintings from the Dutch Golden Age. They symbolize beauty, prosperity, and the fleeting nature of life in Dutch literature and traditions. Tulips are more than just flowers in the Netherlands – they represent history, economic strength, and national pride.
