Week 19 (6 May - 12 May)

In the week of May 6, due to the warm weather and the heavy rainfall the past weeks, we expect less bloom in the park. The flower bulb fields outside Keukenhof have been cut, so it is visible that the end of spring is approaching. The last late blooming species are in bloom in the park. The other flower beds have finished flowering and have been cut. The gardeners maintain the park optimally and plant extra tulips and other flowers in some areas. The flower mosaic next to the Oranje Nassau pavilion is also in bloom.

The park is designed in English landscape style; other parts of the park offer surprising vistas. The more than 2500 trees are filled with leaves, giving the park character. The towering rhododendrons bloom luxuriantly, forming an impressive wall of flowers. The azaleas give the park a beautiful deep pink colour.

Even in the last week, we continue to showcase flower shows. In our pavilions, there are still various flower shows to see. A beautiful carnation and summer flower show in the Oranje Nassau pavilion, a colourful flower and plant show in the Willem-Alexander pavilion, and a must-see orchid show in the Beatrix pavilion.

In the last week, there are extra events in the park. In the inspirational gardens, there is delightful lounge music on weekdays. On May 11 and 12, it’s Romance at Keukenhof. Spread throughout the park, we surprise visitors with various classical performances and costumes.
