Who knew all this would happen afterwards! Flat Creek in Feb. 2024. Much changed by the force of the hurricane floods in Sept. 2024.

    1. Thanks...I admit I only zeroed in on this one bush, as I wasn't feeling well that day. Have a super weekend yourself!

    1. The Craggy gardens picnic area, as well as the summit overlooking the Blue Ridge Parkway, are supposed to have peak Rhododendrons for Mother's Day each year. I've yet to get there to check it out!

    1. I kind of wonder if there are still any on the Blue Ridge Parkway...a week after Mother's Day. But they're having a Toxic Air Warning over 4000 feet...Ozone. So I don't want to go up there till that clears.

    1. And they are pretty much gone from our local woods now. Glad you still have yours to look forward to!

  7. They don't do well in the soil around here, though I did see some in someone's garden on a recent walk.
