Thanks to its fertile sandy soil, the Netherlands’ famous flower strip has been the leading producer of unique flowers for centuries – with the tulip topping the list. From July to October, visitors to Annemieke’s Picking Garden are also welcome to pick beautiful bouquets of summer flowers. Bus line 50 from Haarlem stops directly in front of the garden.

Every spring as soon as the tulips are ready to be picked (the picking season lasts approximately 7 weeks) – Keep an eye on our Facebook page and Instagram for exact dates
