Welcome to a special edition of the Ninetynine Tulips podcast for MuseumWeek 2023. Today's theme is the environment, in line with World Environment Day. We present a podcast called "In Search of Wild Tulips," highlighting the threat of climate change to these tulips. We interview Brett Wilson, a conservationist and scientist, who shares his experiences and the importance of preserving wild tulips in their natural habitat.

In Search of Wild Tulips - interview with Brett Wilson

This is a podcast all about tulips! For an art project I paint 99 tulips who played a role in an extraordinary event in 17th century Holland; the tulip mania. For this project I do a lot of research. And as I learn, I want to share the stories with you. I dive into the history of the tulip and talk of events from long ago, and I tell present day tulip stories. I talk about the role of the tulip in Dutch culture and Dutch art. I speak about tulip gardening and about the present day tulip trade in the Netherlands. 
Join me in discovering the world of the tulip!
