Between 1630 and 1637
a tulip bulb could be
worth as much as a…
Crazy about tulips!

Back in those days, tulips were extremely rare and very
expensive! Only the super rich people could aord to buy
tulip bulbs. But those people did not plant them in their garden
or put them in a lovely vase in their homes. They bought the bulbs
just to sell them again for prot. That way the tulip bulbs became
more and more expensive.

Strangely enough, the people that bought the bulb didn’t actually
get to see one. They received a piece of paper that stated that
they were the owners of a tulip bulb. One day it all went com-
pletely wrong and suddenly the bulbs lost their value. Many, many
people lost their money.
In those years, people were absolutely crazy about tulips. Not
because they are such beauful owers, but because
they were worth so much. They could smell the tulip
money.
Fill in the leers that remain. Then you’ll
know what this period in history is called.

These pictures show you how tulips are grown.
Oh no! The pictures are all the wrong order.
Can you put them in the right order?
Growing a new tulip goes like this: A grower (culvator) crosses theseeds of two dierent tulips. For example a pink and an orange one.
He then culvates bulbs from the seeds. Aer five years, these bulbs
start to flower. Only then, will the grower know if he has succeeded in
creang a new tulip species with all the good qualies of the pink and
orange tulip. Creang a new tulip is an intricate job and can take up to
25 years to perfect!

purple tulips that look like they’re
almost black. Which colours will you
