Ice creams is what we need 🌷🍦☀️!⠀ Weather is really hot here in Holland now. Coming from 15 degrees (59F) last week to 30 degrees (>86F) and more in the last 3 days 😅💦. No time to get used to it. The dahlias love the sun so they are growing well. The tulip bulbs don’t really like the heat so need enough wind to cool down and keep them fresh. ⠀ ⠀ What are you doing to cool down yourself? We put a frozen bottle of water in front of the fan and it really helped ❄️💨💨🥶!⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #myfamflowers #Lisse #holland #netherlands #flowerfarm #flowerbulbs #flowerfields #amsterdam #keukenhof #gardenflowers #flowerfarmer #bloembollen #farmerflorist #blumengarten #blüten #blumen #meingarten #icecreamtulips #tulips #tulips🌷 #tulpen #tulpenliebe #tulipani #tulipa #tulipan #тюльпаны #tulipany #tulipaner #tulipas #tulipbulbs⠀

Ice Cream tulips are a rare variety.

They originated in 1999 from a cross breeding between the double white T. Casa Blanca and the double red with yellow edges T. West Frisia.
