Blooming Forever Achievement Award
Blooming Forever is a charitable organization based in The Netherlands, Europe, and is the owner of a large number of new and genetically unique tulip cultivars. These new cultivars are all selected for their long vase life and excellent growth characteristics.
Every year, Blooming Forever donates one new tulip cultivar, and names it after a person who has made a difference in his or her community, city, country or even across the world.
The motto for Blooming Forever is:
"Make a difference"
