TULIPS TULIPS and more TULIPS

Founded in the 1950's by Dutch emigrants William and Helen Roozen in Washington State, USA, Roozen Gaarde is one of the most exquisite TULIP gardens I have ever seen.  A couple of hours drive north of Seattle, nestled in the Skagit Valley, this is flower heaven.

Never mind the gorgeous colors, look at the surrounding fields and mountains as a backdrop
