Although I would have loved to be at this years tulip time festival sadly I was not. However, to lessen the pain, a friend was able to enjoy the event and pass down the news. It seems that this years tulip time was lacking in tulips! This March temperatures rose to the 80's which started the growth of the tulips too early. When these temperatures hit, the tulip time committee decided to label the upcoming festival as stemfest; knowing in advance that the March heat would force the tulips to bloom too early. So the festival was pushed to do things differently. They used greenhouses for tulips which were brought out for tulip time , they revamped an old french organ, and they had a flash mob. Very nice job Holland! I'll post the flash mob video next.
