cape azalea

A native-to-Virginia wildflower/bush. Nick is home for Lily’s graduation and he suggested a walk at the garden. I forgot how much I like this place.

Beautiful! I wish I had noticed the wildflowers more when I lived in Virginia and Maryland!

Lovely. So delicate.

@eudora I’m slightly obsessed by them . . . maybe more than slightly. Haha!

beautiful! And similar to the orange native azaleas we have here.

@margonaut I would love to see the orange ones “in the wild.” There is a yellow-orange one growing in one of my favorite botanical gardens, but I love the serendipitous-ness of finding them in nature. Some day . . .
