These white azaleas (also known as white rhododendrons) are almost finished blooming but are still active in micro-locations where it has perhaps been a little cooler or a little more shaded until recently.
I love how extravagantly rich and showy they are; they hold nothing back!
Happy Monday.
Azaleas are such a nice display in yards and along roads. Have a great week Lynette. Allan

I come from Rodie country, never have seen anything like these. I grew up in Oregon where one of the great places to visit in the spring is are The Rododndrohen Test Gardens. Love these though. I guess I did not know there was a connection between roddies and azaleas.

Azaleas are a type of rhododendron (I’m not sure which came first, though; I assume the rhododendron 😉). I would love to visit those gardens. I used to live in a house in Germany where the yard was full of rhododendrons – so stunningly beautiful.

I agree, Cindy. These bushes are huge, about 3 metres (9 ft) tall, and totally covered in blooms. Beautiful!

I agree; it’s such a stunningly beautiful two-tone colour combination. The white/yellow ones are apparently also sometimes called yellow azaleas. Cheers.

It quite an unusual colour and very fresh looking. Azaleas are amazing. I’ve had small ones inside before and they just bloom and bloom.
