Other azaleas

 We've seen Flame Azaleas, and the really bright pink ones in my neighborhood.

Today I found some dwarf ones, and a large collection of white ones.

Once again the pruning efforts have left this small bush looking pretty unbalanced.



I only saw bumble bees on all the azaleas, no honey bees.

Patriotism is a kind of religion; it is the egg from which wars are hatched. - Guy de Maupassant, short story writer and novelist (5 Aug 1850-1893)

  2. Hello,
    The azaleas are pretty, I like the pink and the white ones. We have a white one that was planted when we bought the home over 30 years ago. It is big now. Have a great day and a happy week ahead.

    1. When they are allowed to grow big, they sure can be huge.

  3. Over-pruned or not, the flowers look good to my northern eyes.

    1. It's sure nicer than all the grey/brown of winter, isn't it?

  5. I love bumblebees (tiny flying pandas!) but rarely see them these days. :(
