More from the tulip festival!

Back again with ...
More photos from the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival,
these, courtesy of shutterbug Ari.

This is Roozengard, the largest of the tulip producers.

The Skagit Valley is second only to Holland for bulb production.

We saw over a hundred different variations of tulips, daffodils, hyacinth, etc.

There were tulips that looked like lilies, peonies, roses, and even tulips!

You've gotta luv those colors!
We saw whites, ivories, pinks, reds, oranges, apricots,
yellows, greens, lilac, and purples.
We saw displays of all types.
We saw them up close,
and from the field.
We even saw them from their own town,
Tulip Town, another major grower in the valley!
