Last month the wild rhododenderns were in full bloom. As you drove along, you would see splotches of pink against the green. It is a true sign summer is on it’s way in the Northwest.

Lovely delicate shades of pink. The contrast of the green leaves gives them an even greater feeling of delicacy. PS. Thanks for your recent comments re. my family situation. Appreciated!
Beautiful, delicate flower. I love all the different hues the “rhody” comes in.
It is hard to imagine anything so beautiful just growing along the road or against the trees. I have tried, over the years, to get them to grow here but it was not to be.
Surprise, surprise, surprise. It’s me!

Brilliant, brilliant photo!
Glad you are enjoying the coming of summer. We’re in the floods…
Beautiful shot, Norma. The details in your photo are amazing.
How gorgeous, Norma! I had to do a double take, though, when I read “wild rhody.” I guess you have to be in WA to have WILD rhododendron. Lucky you!

I agree with Ming. You captured the details in these lovely blossoms so very nicely. The stamens (I think that’s what they’re called) seem tipped with silver.
