| Can you guess what flower these buds will become?
Couldn't get too close to this one before it flew away:
I still have to experiment with resolution.

| Looks somewhat like a rhododendron, but there are no leaves. |

| You're good, Eric. It's a type of Rhododendron, but has no leaves yet because it's a deciduous Azalea, 'Northern Lights'. Here's a cut out I made a couple years ago:
Sorry about the blurriness, but clarity got lost when I downsized. The original would have taken too long to load. Julie |

| Julie, That has a great salmon color. What's the name of the Azlea? Eric |

| OMG...I'm not kidding, I was thinking it may be a decidious azalea, but didn't post it because I wasn't sure what grew where you live. LoL |

| Eric, it's labeled Rhododendren x 'Northern Lights'. It's one of the few that are hardy this far north. I don't grow Rhododendrons that have evergreen foliage, because winter winds and sun would damage the leaves. Jean, you must have a much larger variety of Azaleas available to grow in your milder climate. Julie |
