Like most everything else around here, the azaleas are a bit late blooming this year. Yesterday was summer-like, hot and a bit muggy. Even though summer does not officially start for a few more weeks, Memorial Day weekend traditionally kicks off summer here in central Virginia. The azaleas in our back yard are about bloomed out, but I found these azaleas blooming in the shade of a red-bud tree, a spring splash of color in the new summer green.
Just another thing that helps make Virginia Virginia.
ReplyDeleteWhen I lived in northern VA I used to go every spring to see the azaleas at the National Arboretum. They were spectacular. Have you been there?
DeleteNot this year, but that gives me an idea . . .
