MOUNT VERNON, Wash. (AP) — The 28th Skagit Valley Tulip Festival opens Friday for a month-long run to celebrate the fields of tulip and daffodil bulbs that blossom this time of year between Mount Vernon and La Conner.

Drivers can take self-guided tours on country roads, which may become congested — especially on weekends.

The cities, including Burlington and Sedro-Woolley, take part in the festival with street fairs, music, art and wine-tastings. Businesses cater to tourists who can buy tulip T-shirts, posters and crafts. There’s even an official Tulip Festival ale.
