- Welcome gardeners! This week my mom and I decided to go on an impromptu trip to the Skagit Valley in Washington State for the Tulip Festival! Rows and rows of colorful tulips paint the valley. It really is an amazing sight to see! 🌷Enjoy!
“A tulip doesn’t strive to impress anyone. It doesn’t struggle to be different than a rose. It doesn’t have to. It is different. And there’s room in the garden for every flower.” - Marianne Williamson

Happy Birthday Mom🎂 What a special treat🌷Thank you for sharing with us. The kaleidoscope rows of color with the mountains in the background are beyond words. So gorgeous!!!
These are the “Moments and Memories” .. that will last a “LIFETIME” ❤️🌷🍃 Happy Birthday Mom !!
I am sooooooo jealous! I grew up in Seattle and we went there every year!!!
I used to live in Mount Vernon. Enjoyed the tulips and daffodils, and they where different every year. I would go out early in the morning during the week to take photos. Much less people then. I'm glad you enjoyed them.
Well I think as far as tulips go Washington has Holland Michigan beat. In Holland Mi. The streets, I guess their called devil strips are planted with tulips for miles. It’s a beautiful drive. During tulip time Dutch dancers wash the streets and bands from the area schools March in the parade. My two daughters were in band many years ago and my granddaughter danced in a Dutch custom as a boy, the costumes have to be original to the Dutch heritage and dancing as a boy was much cheaper. The authentic Dutch girl costume’s with all the different layers could get quite costly. Anyway Holland’s tulip time is an event and during tulip time I either avoid driving in Holland or use the back roads.🌷💚🙃
After World War II this area helped replenish the tulips in Holland because of the lose due to the war. My sister who lives in the Seattle area took me to this same farm. Pictures can’t do it justice.
I didn;t know we had a Keukenhof here in the States! Now I don't have to go to the Netherlands for spectacular beauty. Thanks for sharing, Janie and Happy Birthday, Mom!
Wow Janey 🌺 I imagined before watching your video that you and your mother going to Netherland to see the tulips . What abeautiful and amazing place full of flowers of tulips and daffodils in Skagit valley it looks like aheaven on the earth. Have awonderful day .🌺🌻🌺
I am from the Netherlands. This is beautiful and have just returned from a 3-week-roadtrip to your country. You live in a beautiful country! But The Keukenhof near Amsterdam is Paradise for spring flowers!!! Millions of people from all over the world come to see it. It takes you at least 4 hours. Please visit it some day and try to find the best time depending on the weather. I will join you Janey! Love ,Lia
👋🏻 mom and thank you Janey. 🌷💚🙃
Those muskari Pathes were just amazing. Remind me of the wizard of oz.
You are in my neck of the woods. Welcome. One of my favorite places.😊
So amazing, I got teary 🥹 eyed, for some reason, when you guys were driving along the Daffodil field after Roozen.
Welcome to Washington state 💚🌱🌿 our spring has been so slow and cooler. Happy you two went to see the tulips
Oh my gosh that gave me cold chills when you 1st walked in haha ha.😅
Happy Birthday to your mom!
I’ve always wanted to go here and see this but now at least I’ve been able to see it through your eyes. Thank you.!
I hope you can visit one day, but glad I could give you my own tour 💗
I’m a crazy tulip lover. Have been to the tulip festival in Ottawa Canada and also a local festival in Niagara. But after watching this I’ll have to plant more muscari. Wow that colour in waves is stunning. But, if they could only make a tulip that is squirrel and rabbit proof. 😂🇨🇦
I absolutely agree....we lived nearby this area for 20 years, and it was a seasonal must do. I felt it was a best kept secret. If you never make it to Amsterdam, you won't have missed out. Also, take a ferry ride to Cli ton on Whidbey Island and visit Christianson Nursery!
Ferry to Clinton and drive to see Deception Pass. Christianson nursery is in Skagit Valley not on island
Agreed, Love Christianson nursery.
OMG! I have never been so impressed with bulbs before ever! What an awesome trip and to be sharing with your mom is the ultimate experience. I love , love you and your realistic videos. Your love of learning is so refreshing to a retired teacher and garden lover. Keep up the wonderful work.
Oh my gosh, this place is absolutely beautiful. I’m so glad that you and your mom get to experience this place together.
😁🤩🥰❤️
Your mom is right about the rows being wider than they used to be. I grew up here, and as a young teen worked one summer digging bulbs - by hand! Can you believe they used to all be dug up by hand?!? That summer in the 80's, Roosengard got their first mechanical harvester, but most bulbs were still dug by kids (like me!) on their hands and knees with duct tape wrapped around fingers - tougher than any gloves.
Cool wet weather delays the bloom so it's not the same time every year.
And you definitely need to visit the Netherlands - Roosengard is just a small sample of a spring trip to Amsterdam. Hope you can go someday!
Thanks for the clarification! Visiting there would be an absolute dream 💗
Yes, it's been an unusually chilly, rainy and windy spring in the Skagit Valley. Many people of a certain age used to work in the tulip fields as teenagers. In the spring , they have a barn where workers wrap tulips for fresh market. In the summer, they dig the bulbs. Dusty work! The Roozen family has employed many people for decades. When they opened the Roozengarde shop and viewing grounds, the Tulip Festival really took off and became a very popular April destination. Thank you for visiting our beautiful valley.🌷🌷🌷
I wish you got excited!! What a beautiful place to go! My Father always had a large tulip bed, The deep reds and purples were my favorites. Cherish these times with your Mom!! What a special trip!!
Welcome to Washington!!!!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful trip with us. So much beauty. Just think God could have made everything black and white but He loved us so much He gave us all the beautiful colors and flowers of every shape and size.
Oh, wow... that's so pretty
So gorgeous! I drove up there last Easter with my sister in law, from their place in Everett an hour or so south of there - tulips are definitely a few weeks behind this year due to the cold! (I'm in Spokane, even more behind - none of mine are blooming yet!)
So worth the trip!! Thanks for sharing 🌷
All I can say is "OMG" that was beautiful.
Thank you so much for sharing this Amazing Place with us!!! So Gorgeous!!!
I’m so glad you enjoyed Carolyn!
Hi! You're up in our neighborhood practically, just over the border from us in Vancouver BC Canada. The weather right now is unseasonably cold. Our April is usually much warmer. I hope you have fun anyway!
Having lived in Santa Maria Valley, CA, I know what fields of flowers can be ... God's pallet. But now I live in northern Washington and live in another area blessed with growers. Skagit valley is such a blessing to the soul. Florette Farms is amazing at growing dahlias and other tubers. So happy to see you here.
Thank you for sharing your trip! So beautiful! Closest I have gotten is the runnaculas fields in Carlsbad.The colors just stay in your mind. Could tell that was mom right away. Special trip!
Happy Birthday to your mom. You may think that it is cold however living here for me it is great. That is why I always doing something outside so that I would not feel the brisk breeze. You may think that it is late spring however it is mid spring here in BC and I know why you think it would not be early as you are from California and there you are late spring early summer. Anyways enjoy the tulip tour.
So much fun to be had.! What stunning places to visit, shame they're over 3,000 miles from me. I know because when you leave Ocean City Md, there's a sign, 3,000 to Ca. So nice you got to go with your mom, one day Janey you'll go with your girls..
Welcome to the Skagit Valley! Hope you brought warm clothes❤
😆😆 I figured it out!
Yes there are tulip ,taller type fritillaria and snake’s head ,which is much shorter
So happy that you and your mom got to share this experience together ❤️.
Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤Wow, this was a beautiful trip. This is what I imagine a gardener's heaven looks like.❤❤❤❤
Wouldn’t you want to just sit there in an ocean of flowers! Yes please
Happy Birthday Trish! 🎉🎉🎉
Happy birthday to your mom. I live in Washington state and have never gone. My daughter (14) and I are going this weekend! Can't wait and thank you for sharing your video.🌷
So happy for you and your mom to be able to take this lovely trip together
what a fun trip!!!
Welcome to western Washington! Happy Birthday Mom! I live south of Seattle. Years ago we would leave home in the dark so we could arrive at the tulips fields to take pics in the morning light. Sometimes we were the only ones there and there were no fees for parking or entrance to the gardens. The good old days! I always order bulbs from RoozenGaarde every year and the bulbs are big and very high quality. I planted a bed with a river of muscari, aka grape hyacinth, with daffodils in the backround. Gorgeous! Yes, our bulb season is very late this year. Still waiting for tulips to bloom and even some of the specialty daffodils. The Dutch Master daffodils bloomed early as expected. One of the split corona daffodils you pointed out was Apricot Whirl, and she's a beauty. She naturalized and grew back again this year. Also waiting for the alliums and Fritillaria Persica to bloom. This sounds like a great birthday trip! Glad you could visit the beautiful Skagit Valley.
I’ll be there in a few days, I’m so excited!
What a fun trip with your mom! My daughter lives in Puget Sound so from now on I know where I need to be during April of each year 😊
It’s like a kid in a candy store. Beautiful
So beautiful. Thanks for sharing 🌷🌷🌷
I grew up in that area and I can't tell you how many car accidents happen on the highway every year during that time of year from people rubber-necking lol! It really is so stunning
Absolutely stunning!!
Now I know that early blooms are just as beautiful as the full blooms! We always go at the end of the season, but now we might go sooner than we planned, looks like less crowds too. (Sorry I didn't watch your video with the volume on so I don't know what you're saying).
Very gorgeous! Reminds me of The Flower Fields in Carlsbad, CA. They have renunculas instead of tulips.
Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Adding this to my bucket list!!
Love that! It’s a good one!!
I was just at the Flower Fields in Carlsbad, California. It looks almost exactly like that, but it's Ranunculus! If you haven't been, you should plan a trip there sometime.
thank you for taking us with you!! omg it was breathtaking and I wasn’t even there in person!! Now I really need to go!
Beautiful thank you!😊
Loved it! I don’t use many tulips in northern Michigan because of deer pressure, but I can certainly up my daffodil game!
Beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing !!
Can’t believe you’re in Washington state! Please do a meet up! Would love to come & say hi!
I've been there. It's worth it!
❤Thank you for posting. visited in 2019 and the trip is a beautiful memory. Love to see videos of the river of purple flowers between the tulips
I hope this video helped you relive some memories from your trip 💗
@@DigPlantWaterRepeat A trip with my daughter too ❤️
Breathtaking ❤🌷
Thanks for sharing! Wish I could go there :)
Beautiful and inspiring trip with your mom. It reminded me of your cut garden acreage away from your home. I am curious: Have you abandoned the replanting of those spaces? Will you please update us on your plans for it? Thank you.
Fabulous!
Loved this! Thank you

Wow wow wow! Those apricot daffodils were beautiful!!
I need to mix muscari and daffodils in a container next year. So beautiful! Thanks for taking us along!
Hey! You were up in my neck of the woods! ❤ I live about 2 hours south of Skagit Valley closer to Mr. Rainer! It is so fun to see you and your mom enjoying the beautiful fields of flowers of our state! We are heading up to see the flowers early next week! I hope you had a little time to explore Seattle, too!
Thanks for taking us along with you to the tulip festival. Absolutely gorgeous tulips! Are you near Floret Farm? It would be an amazing visit with Erin.
Floret is near the tulip and daffodil fields in the Skagit Valley but Erin doesn’t open up her flower farm to the public🌷
My daughter and I went in 2021, just beautiful!! We have relatives that live in the area.
Thank you for video ., ut wish you make more longer video where you shop and buy bag..
