Thousands of bright, blossoming tulips across hundreds of acres of land is a familiar sight in Norfolk around this time of year but it won't stay that way for long.

Once they reach their perfect state of blossom, the tulips are cut and their bulbs are planted in time to flower for the Christmas and spring markets.
