US: 15,000 tulips to celebrate Dutch Tulip Days
Ten thousand tulips and a hundred orchids in vivid arrangements, designed by Susanne Schrijvers, decorate the Ambassador’s Embassy Row residence in Washington, D.C. The Neoclassical Revival house, built in 1929, is a perfect setting to showcase the Dutch expertise in horticulture.
An extra 5,000 tulips will be handed out to the public at Dupont Circle on Dutch-American Friendship Day by Ambassador Schuwer and Embassy staff this Thursday.
