The man

Did had a nice talk with this two chap`s about the economy of the tulips. The owner of the land was contracted by a firm to grow the bulbs for this season. After harvest they go back to a store ( in an other place in the country) and be selected on size and quality. Next year the will grow up in a glass/hot house to grow up for cut flowers, Those you can buy in a flower shop. After that the bulb is worthless and will be destroyed and recycled. ( The bulb need a grow after flowering to get the energy for a next year. By cutting it off you make this impossible.)
Those two man was hired to inspect and remove the no good/real species.
