Will the tulips in Holland still be in season in early June? - Yellow Tulip Flower Field during Daytime

I do understand that the Dutch tulip fields are in full bloom to be beheld in all their glory from April to early May, but will there be any stunning Tulip fields to see in early June? I know it's outside of their peak season, but what is the likelihood of there being some late-bloomers?

Where are some of the best places to view the tulip fields (or other breathtaking flower fields) in early June with or without windmills in and around the Amsterdam area?



Best Answer

Tulips are temperature triggered, they require at least a month of winter cold weather, then a couple months of warming weather. So unless winter lasted much later than normal, fields will be bloomed out by June.

Perhaps you can find a garden or artificial environment (greenhouses, etc) where the bulbs have been forced to bloom out of season. But it won't be the same grandeur of acres of tulips in bloom.
