Editor’s Note:
The NESTER returns with Lee and Roger for their annual pilgrimage to Skagit County, Washington’s tulip garden, ROOZENGAARDE. This family-owned farm was founded in 1947 by Dutch immigrant William Roozen, on five acres, but today both family and acreage have greatly increased! Lee’s photos feature a feast of new designs and displays!
HOLLAND WINDMILL IN TULIP FIELDS
windmill proud erect
between blankets of tulips
beauty laid for miles
ariel view seen
like stripes across a flag
eye candy to reap
By Doris Culverhouse
You are invited to join Lee and Roger for this spring’s Roozengaarde experience, and enjoy the visual effects of massed tulips and shape plantings! Roger’s nephew and his wife joined them for a mid-April visit to the famous gardens, and you are welcome to stroll along with the group!
TULIP CIRCLES AND MASSED PLANTINGS
SHAPES
In addition to the many tulip circles and massed plantings, each year the gardeners create shapes of color, unique “works of art.”
The rainbow shaped sign at ROOZENGAARDE has an important message for the tulips and all of us!

Tulip opera
a chorus of colors
how I love mezzos
