I’m 100% sure that you’ve heard of or seen the pictures from the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival. Tulips are gorgeous there, farms in the Skagit County produce more tulip bulbs as well as daffodil and iris bulbs than any other region of the United States. More about Skagit Valley Tulip Festival you can read HERE
Spring is one of the most fabulous times to enjoy colorful fields: golden daffodils, bright tulips, purple iris and much more.
March is the month when tourists enjoy daffodils in bloom. La Conner Daffodil Festival gathers together lots of flower-lovers. Many fun events, exhibits and other gatherings take place in March during La Conner Daffodil Festival.
This festival is not as popular as the tulip festival, but still its beauty is indescribable - golden fields against the background of Mt. Baker are fabulously beautiful!
By the way, RoozenGaarde, one of the display gardens, grows more than 450 acres of daffodils. Here you will find such varieties as Dutch Master, world’s most famous daffodil variety, Flower Carpet and Standard Value.
Daffodil fields can be found throughout the valley between the towns of Mount Vernon and La Conner. Get into your car and drive along these lovely flowers, feel the aroma and enjoy the sweetness of the moment.
These fields of gold are a bright and joyful announcement of spring’s arrival! We’ve been waiting for these views during winter! Cold days have passed, let’s enjoy warm and shiny weather!
