That's beautiful Sue, such lovely colour - very uplifting. I thought about doing a similar thing on my blog but just couldn't get a decent enough image.

I quite like just using photos on one post a week Linda as sometimes you don't need words do you?
DeleteTotally agree Sue. :)
DeleteWow! What huge rhododendrons! And beautiful colours!
ReplyDeleteThank you Dewberry
DeleteSo lush and gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it a pity that it is fleeting TPals
DeleteHow delightful. I would never had considered putting that red and purple together. Now I know what I can plant next to my red rhodo in the side garden. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteGlad to be able to help, Angie
DeleteHow lovely, are they azalias? I love the combination. xxxx
ReplyDeleteThey're rhododendrons Snowbird, The purple is a miniature and the larger one is also a small variety (if that makes sense).
DeleteLovely colours
ReplyDeleteHardly subtle but we like it, Flowerlady
DeleteIt's a shame we can't grow rhodies and azalea here our soil just isn't acid enough - but they do look glorious when they are in full swing.
ReplyDeleteApparantly Elaine there is now a Rhodi available that doesn't need acid soil. I think I saw it on one of the shopping channels :)
DeleteFailing that I have a couple of Rhodis on neutral soil and I just scatter ammonium sulphate round the area once a year - they seem to be thriving!

I also like that they are evergreen and so are 'there' all year round.
DeleteWhat a beautiful sight! All the blooms are lovely and it's very bad that we can't plant them here.... ;(
ReplyDeleteBut you can plant such beautiful things
DeleteGorgeous colours, they just zing. It reminds me that I should take a trip to Temple Newsam to see the rhododendrons there, they have a wonderful display.
ReplyDeleteIt's ages since I went to Temple Newsam, Jo. I miss the grounds where I used to work as we had lots of azaleas and rhododendrons.
DeleteYour Spring colour is gorgeous! Rhododendrons and azalea are lovely this time of year.
ReplyDeleteThis is the view from one of our windows, Kelli so we can be cheered up when the weather is miserable.
DeleteThe colours in this photo look wonderful Sue...definitely a garden to sit in and admire!
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately the moment has passed, Tanya, The red rhododendron has dropped its petals.
