- The Skagit Valley Tulip Festival Washington is an annual explosion of color that attracts visitors from all over Northwest Washington and British Columbia. The display of flowers is located west of Mount Vernon between Anacortes and Burlington Washington.
As you can see in the video there are fast fields of color to explore as well as a show garden loaded with a wide variety of Tulips as well as other flowers.
Ironically the Tulips are not planted for their flowers, it is the bulbs they are after. The bulbs are cultivated, harvested, and then sold online year round and around the world.
There are over 3,000 recognized variety of Tulips.
During the great Tulip Mania craze in the 1600's in Holland the value of some tulip bulbs was around $40,000, making many people very rich until the market crashed and a lot of people became very poor. Eventually the Dutch Government decided to void all contracts made during the Tulip Craze to help get their economy back on track.
The many lessons learned from the tulip craze have helped identify and avert similar market manias with other commodities.
The tulips generally bloom April 1st until Mid May. Be sure to check out the Tulip Festival for yourself.

amazing video
Awesome love the video footage! :) Love flowers and nice wind mill :) I love flying my Q500 drone around Ireland for some aerial footage! Well done on your video! :) Thumbs up & Greetings! :)
Nice video, thanks. I think we will go on a weekday when crowds will be thin, which to us, is a much more peaceful/ enjoyable experience.
Robnord1 Hi Rob, it really is more enjoyable when it's less crowded. I went on a Monday about Noon and as you can see it was a zoo. Perhaps the best time is right when they open at 9am but you'd better think about doing it soon. The flowers are already showing signs of being a little tired.
The Skagit Valley Tulip Festival is an amazing sight. The colors are so vibrant they make you dizzy. The fields are currently in bloom as this video is being posted and should be blooming another week or two.
Spring in full swing with beautiful flowers. Reminds me of the Netherlands. Not too sure tulips would do good here in Florida because of the intensity of the sun. How many do they plant each year?
AwesomeDocumentary They plant about 600 Kajillion tulip bulbs every year. (Unofficial Estimate)The tulip fields seem to go as far as you can see. They sell them year round around the world through their catalogs and the on the internet and when people buy them they usually buy several bags of bulbs.
