The Netherlands gave tulips to the Bucha community for the third time: 116,000 bulbs this year [photos]

The Bucha community has received 116,000 tulip bulbs from the Netherlands. Workers of the municipal company Dobryi Hospodar are already planting them.

This was reported by Bucha mayor Anatolii Fedoruk.

For the third year in a row, the tulips are a gift to the community from Arjan Smit, director of the Dutch company Smit Flowers. The Meest group delivered the bulbs to Bucha.

The Netherlands-Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Ukraine’s honorary consul in the Netherlands, Emile de Severin Jacquet, helped arrange the gift.

A dark and difficult winter lies ahead. But we want the Bucha community to greet spring with thousands of flowers after it.
