We studied the weather and the tulip blooming progress. We picked a day when it wasn't going to rain and the tulips would be at their best. That day was Friday. We weren't disappointed. There were lots of others who picked that day too, so I just had to contend with people in my photos. But that was all part of the color and the scene.
What you are going to get now is a photo dump that will keep coming over several posts. I won't have to worry about being boring. :-)
All of these photos are taken in the display garden of Roozengaarde, the largest blub growers in the beautiful Skagit Valley in northwestern Washington state. There will be very little comment on my part. Just enjoy.

ReplyDeleteOh my, the colors are amazing. So many varieties of tulips. Thanks for sharing!!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. The photo of you in front of the windmill reminded me of the Keukenhof Gardens in the Netherlands.
Yes, I've been there too. This is our own little Holland.
DeleteWow with all those amazing colors I was really struck by the purity and contrast of the plain white ones.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I am so glad you went and took lots of photos! Perfect on a dreary Minnesota day:)

ReplyDeleteSomebody has a good eye to plant tulips so that colors and shapes show off well.
