- Set at the height of the "tulipomania" that gripped Holland in 17th century, this is the story of Cornelius van Baerle, a humble grower whose sole desire is to grow the perfect specimen of the tulip negra.

His jailor's daughter Rosa, holds both the key to his survival and his chance to produce the ultimate tulip.
