In the 16th century, the Habsburg ambassador in Istanbul brought bulbs to Vienna. The botanist, Carolus Clusius propagated them and brought them to Leiden, in Holland when hehad been appointed director of Botanical Garden. One of the best places to see tulips is in the Keukenhof Flower garden near Amsterdam.
