Grugliasco, Italy – The stunning U-pick tulip garden in Grugliasco has once again burst into bloom, showcasing a breathtaking array of 495,000 vibrant tulips. Following the success of previous years and the overwhelming support from thousands of visitors, this year’s event promises an even more enchanting experience with the addition of new Muscari, Narcissus, Hyacinths, Kaufmanniana Tulips, Fritillaria, Iris, and Allium bulbs.
The Italian Tulips’ journey, which began in 2017, has been a testament to their commitment to sustainability, courtesy, and a deep love for nature’s beauty. Edwin Koemane and Nitsuhe Wolanios, the founders of Italian Tulips, have strived to create a haven where nature’s tranquility offers moments of pure joy.
Spread across 2 hectares, equivalent to 4 soccer fields, the fields boast over 400 unique tulip varieties, each more stunning than the last. Visitors are invited to wander through the fields, capturing the perfect photo against the backdrop of these natural wonders. Children can enjoy playful moments among the hay bales, adding to the charm of the experience.
Italian Tulips’ dedication to sustainability is evident in their farming practices. They refrain from using chemical agents to enhance flower growth, instead relying on natural processes and the hard work of bees and insects. This commitment to the environment has garnered them immense support from their visitors, who eagerly anticipate the annual spectacle.
The Grugliasco field, located at Strada del Portone 197, is open until April 28th, welcoming visitors every day from 9 am to 7 pm, with extended hours on weekends. Rain or shine, the fields are open to all, with safety being a top priority.
In addition to the fields, Grugliasco’s city center will also bloom with over 2,000 tulips, further enhancing the town’s reputation as the “city of tulips.” This initiative, supported by the municipality, aims to draw visitors to the historic center, enriching the community and celebrating the beauty of nature.
Italian Tulips’ success is a testament to their passion for nature and their commitment to creating unforgettable experiences for their visitors. As the tulips bloom and the fields come alive with color, Grugliasco becomes a destination where beauty, nature, and joy converge, offering a truly magical experience for all who visit.
