A great sign of spring......  blooming rhododendrons and azaleas.

Think Spring

Most of the U.S. is pretty darned cold. Not here!  The National Weather report said it's warmest where I live.  Aaahh..... warm sunny days around the pool or on the golf course.  And in a month or so there'll be rhododendrons blooming.

Green and White

Rhododendrons are beautiful when in full bloom.  Something we never see in the desert.   So when I find some in bloom I take lots of picture so I can enjoy them year round.

Morning Sprinkles

Flowers always look so clean and fresh after an early morning shower. These rhododendrons are no exception. Happy and healthy, they await the rest of the day.

Orange Rhodies

Monet's Garden was awash with blooms, irises, tulips, wisteria, azaleas and rhododendrons. But when I spotted these orange ones I was taken aback. I'm used to seeing them in whites and shades of reds and pinks. They were so vibrant they almost looked phony.
