Spring will be in full swing in Rhode Island before we know it, which means it won't be long before the tulips are in bloom. There's no better place to tiptoe through the tulips than Wicked Tulips Flower Farm, a beloved gem in Exeter, RI. Visiting this place is a time-honored tradition for many New Englanders, and it's a tradition that will continue in the future. In the meantime, learn more about the history of this beautiful farm and enjoy a virtual tour.

Wicked Tulips Flower Farm is owned by a husband and wife team.

Keriann and Jeroen Koeman moved to Rhode Island in 2015 with an established tulip business. They started Wicked Tulips that same year, eventually EcoTulips.com (now WickedTulips.com) with Wicked Tulips Flower Farm.

Keriann is a native New Englander and a self-described green girl, while Jeroen comes from a family of Dutch tulip growers.

Rhode Island's climate happens to be perfect for growing tulips, which is one of the reasons they settled here.

The tulip farm is absolutely gorgeous, featuring over 1.5 million bulbs.

The main field is mixed with more than 75 varieties of tulips, each of which shows at slightly different times and allows for a fuller field and longer blooming period.

When the tulips bloom in late April or early May, the farm hosts the only u-pick tulip event in the state.

Guests can purchase tickets, which are good for picking 10 tulips. Each tulip after that is $1 per stem. While you can bring your own scissors or clippers, they won't be necessary.

At the end of the season, the remaining tulips are donated to area nursing homes and other facilities.

Then, in October, the seeds are planted and the cycle begins again.

With any luck, we'll be gathering in this gorgeous Rhode Island tulip field before we know it.

Wicked Tulips Flower Farm is located at 400 Hog House Hill Rd. in Exeter, RI.

Additionally, there are two other Wicked Tulips, one is located in Johnston, RI, while the other can be found in Preston, CT.
