Rhododendron



Their exquisite beauty always leaves me speechless. That's OK, because Emerson has already said it best.
"Rhodora ! if the sages ask thee why
This charm is wasted on the earth and sky,
Tell them, dear, that if eyes were made for seeing,
Then Beauty is its own excuse for being/"

  3. I'm not a big fan... the bushes seem coarse to me. But the color of this group of blooms is beautiful.
