WASHINGTON -- Ask a child to
draw a flower, and chances are it
will come out a tulip -? a cup
shaped bloom atop a tall stem
framed by several leaves.
When spring explodes in the
Netherlands, thousands of acres of
crayon drawings come spectacular
ly to life.
"Amazingly enough, in this age
of agribusiness and increased
mechanization, bulb growing in the
Netherlands is still primarily a
small family-operated enterprise,"
reports Elizabeth A. Moize in the
May National Geographic.
"In the bulb-growing districts
along the coast north and south of
Haarlem, more than 80 percent of
the holdings are five hectares (12.4
acres) or less," she says. "A
year-round operation, tulip-bulb
growing occupies mothers and
fathers, aunts and uncles, even the
children."
Everyone pitches in to plant in
the fall, tend the spring flowers,
and harvest the new bulbs in the
summer. Such industriousness pays
off. Last year growers produced
some 2 billion tulip bulbs, and 142
million of them were shipped to the
United States.
The largest auction house in the
world, at Aalsmeer. Holland, pro
cesses potted bulbs and cut flowers
in a building that covers an area
equal to 30 football fields. Every
single bloom sold passes through
one of the five auction rooms where
exporters, wholesalers, and shop
keepers bid on the flowers of their
choice.
Many exporters contract directly
with growers months in advance to
supply them with a certain quality
and quantity of loose bulbs.
No matter what the source, bulbs
destined for the United States must
pass stringent requirements to
guard against the introduction of
plant pests and diseases. Since
1951 the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, with the cooperation
of Dutch exporters and the Nether
lands Plant Protection Service, has
inspected tulip bulbs before ship
ment, the only permanent opera
tion of its kind outside the United
States.
Prior to the U.S. -Dutch agree
ment, bulbs were held at a U.S.
port until each container was
opened and inspected. If organisms
were found, the shipment was
refused - at considerable cost to
both importer and exporter. Now
bulbs are inspected, packaged, and
often stamped with U.S. prices
before shimnent.
T ulips once commanded princely
sums in Holland itself. When the
first tulips came from Turkey to
Europe in the 16th century, the
Dutch immediately took the flower
to their hearts. Wealthy amateur
growers were soon paying high
prices for unusual specimens, and
from 1634 to 1637 speculation
reached the ridiculous.
One bulb of a tulip named
Semper Augustus sold for the
equivalent of $4,600. In a com
modities market gone wild, specu
lators bought and sold bulbs that
never left the ground. Businesses,
homes, jewels, even workman's
tools were mortgaged or sold to buy
bulbs in hopes of reaping a fortune.
The market eventually crashed
and the government stepped in to
stop the madness and restore order,
'?caving the tulip trade - just as it is
today ?? in the hands of serious
growers and gardeners.
