Azalea

It is a cold wet day and lockdown doesn't feel so bad today. Not able to get out much to take photos so I am having to take photos close to home.

Luckily yesterday I had a wander around the garden taking photos of flowers before the rain came, so you will be bombarded with flower photos for the next week.

We have two azalea bushes and they are flowering like mad at the moment.

Azaleas can be as beautiful as a rhododendron - similar but you can see the differences!

[Ryan]

These are lovely. I'm a little jealous of the flowers you have!

[Babs]

@kjarn fingers crossed you stay negative.

@olivetreeann ha ha I think lockdown must be having an effect on me.

@happypat David is feeling a bit better today. He will be fine once the antibiotics kick in.

@leggzy cold and wet here again today. No power either at the moment too. I am checking 365 on my tablet. Got the woodburner lit, cuppa made on the camping stove, so could be worse

[Jane Pittenger]

Delicate and beautiful

[Shutterbug]

Love the nice details in your capture and the way the leaves frame the blossom. I love azaleas. Our seasons are upside down from yours so won’t see those in my yard for probably 6 months.

[Myrna O'Hara]

Lovely

[Carrie Shepeard]

Beautiful azalea! Nicely composed shot

[haskar]
