A probe commissioned by the Dutch capital's municipality and tulip growers also found that often only one flower resembled the pictures on the packaging, and that there were fewer bulbs than advertised.
"Millions of tourists and day-trippers are being duped," KAVB chairman Rene le Clercq said in a statement. Vendors not only sell tulip bulbs but also narcissus, snowdrops, carnations, violets, peonies and orchids. Of the bulbs bought from the rows of stalls along a main road in Lisse, only 2% ever bloomed, the KAVB said.
Slow news day was it. Jeez.
how are people stupid enough to buy these in the first place
If that's the only thing you're getting duped over by when in Amsterdam, you're not doing it right.
Go out to Keukenhof and buy the real deal. You have to dig them up to stop them reappearing every year.
