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.

This episode is dedicated to an account of the work on 99 tulips, from the time of the tulipfever, which are on display in Museum The Black Tulip in Lisse.

In this episode I interview Ibo Gülsen owner of IGMPR Imagineering Horti Culture, a Dutch firm which creates horti culture tulip experinces at flowershows and parks.

Interview with Hakan Özcan where I recollect memories on our painting projects and how we got into painting tulips.

Presenting to you the painting of 'Sultan with Tulips'. A large work made in Rembrandt style by Peter Hengst.

Peter tells of the creation proces, his live long facination with Rembrandt and of course we talk about the tulip.

This is the first of a series of episodes I want to make about tulip entrepreneurs. Looking at people which had a creative (tulip) idea and turned it into a business.
