Mt. Hood Flowers of the Month

By Madeline Bombardi For The Mountain Times

As winter fades, tulips emerge as one of the first signs of spring’s arrival on Mount Hood. With their elegant, sleek forms and vibrant colors — deep purples, fiery reds, soft pinks, and sunny yellows — tulips bring a fresh burst of energy to the landscape. These hardy flowers thrive in the cool, moist conditions of the lower elevations, standing tall against late-season frosts and signaling warmer days ahead.

This month’s tulip arrangement showcases the beauty of these resilient blooms, paired with delicate greenery to create a balanced, dynamic display. Give the gift of renewal and brighten someone’s day with a cheerful reminder of the season’s change.
