Floating Flowers


Flowers are a part of everyday life here in The Netherlands. Flower stands abound ... in Wassenaar there are several grower-owned stands that operate only on Friday and Saturday.

Pictured above is one of the permanent stalls in the Amsterdam Flower Market. The Bloemenmarkt stalls are actually houseboats that float on the canal. You can find everything "floral" here, from fresh cut flowers to bulbs.
