Brightwood, VA-based EcoTulips LLC<\/a> is bringing\u00a0positive change<\/strong>\u00a0to the flower bulb industry by offering an alternative to chemically grown bulbs. Organic flower bulbs are grown without toxic pesticides which negatively affect the environment and have been linked to hive collapse in the honey bee population. The US imports approximately 800 million chemical grown bulbs from Holland every year.\u00a0 EcoTulips\u2019 bulbs let bee\u2019s pollinate without being in danger.<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cTulip Man\u201d Jeroen Koeman, co-founder with wife Keriann, began importing the first organic bulbs in 2009. They have also hosted the nations only\u00a0Organic Tulip Festival\u00a0the last two Aprils, attracting fans from DC, Maryland and Virginia. Jeroen comes from a long line of tulip growers in the Netherlands.<\/p>\n

EcoTulips<\/a> sent me a lovely selection of organic bulbs to review. \u00a0Everything was packaged beautifully and had clear planting directions. My husband, Ethan, Luke and I planted them, and the bulbs were in beautiful condition. \u00a0We will need to revisit our planting areas in the Spring for part 2 of this review, but I think we are going to be in for quite a treat of colors. \u00a0I love that they are organic and chemical free because we do not use any type of chemicals on our lawn or in our gardens. \u00a0The funny thing is last year we had a colony of honeybees that were in a mass on our lawn and we called the local bee keeper and he gladly rehomed them for us. \u00a0They were probably very comfortable on our lawn since we do not use any chemical fertilizers or weed killers of any kind. We have learned to embrace the dandelion and have peace of mind that our children and pets can run and play in our yard without being exposed to nasty substances. EcoTulip is the only American source of organic, pesticide free tulip bulbs!!!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

I was sent the beautiful Purple Prince Tulip, Tulip Ile de France, Dutch Master Daffodil,<\/a>\u00a0Tulip Little Beauty, Tulip Menton\u00a0, and the Fancy Tulip Finola. \u00a0I will be looking forward to Spring even more than usual this coming year. \u00a0I cannot wait to see and take pictures of these beautiful flowers. \u00a0I am so happy to have found a company that produces high quality, organic, pesticide free flower bulbs. \u00a0If you are looking to get some beautiful Spring flower bulbs that are not full of toxic chemicals and are kind to the earth and its inhabitants, check out EcoTulips<\/a>, your family, the earth and the honeybees will thank you. \u00a0Stay tuned for part 2 of this review in the Spring!!!<\/p>\n
