The azaleas are a real tonic to see on a rather grey day in the U.K. I like the quote too. Have a good day, Sandra. It's good to be back blogging and meeting up with my blog friends.
Sandra, your azalea blooms are awesome. These flowers (exotics in South Africa) always remind me of my childhood in Kwa-Zulu Natal. Azaleas grow easily in that province, and we always had an Azalea festival during September. Here in the Free State province, you'd struggle to grow these flowers. Thanks for sharing. Jo
The largest azalea garden in Texas is right here in East Texas in Nacogdoches. The town even hosts an azalea festival and garden groups are bussed in from all over the state and beyond to see them. They should be popping up here pretty soon and I'm sure I'll have some photos because I always do. Azaleas blooms don't last very long and the buses are very nondescript when they're not in bloom. It's a long wait for a burst of quick beauty.
Just FYI, we had snow today...snowed and flurried most of the day. Sometimes really hard, sometimes just a few flakes. At one time frozen little pellets. But it has been too warm for it to stick.
Azaleas looks very beautiful with their bright color...
ReplyDeleteThey just scream Spring!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love these colorful photos and the quote. Have a good day.
ReplyDeleteHello, your azaleas are beautiful. I am still away and trying to catch up with my blog reading on this rainy morning! Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteI remember seeing huge azalea bushes in Savannah Ga. Azaleas are one of my favorites. Thanks for the beautiful photos!
ReplyDeletethese Azaleas are beautiful! Mine haven't started blooming yet, hopefully soon!
ReplyDeleteReally gorgeous, Sandra. I'm sure these photos will make most of your readers extreme;y jealous...and I'm one of them. :)
ReplyDeletethey are so pretty. My dad used to have huge azalea bushes in his yard. I've planted a couple and both died
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Have a marvellous Monday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
