So, after another glorious day at #Bodnant gardens earlier, I would like to introduce you to some more beautiful #rhododendrons for your delectation and delight...
Here we have:
Rhododendron oreodoxa var. fargesii.
Rhododendron macabeanum.
Rhododendron Choremia.
Rhododendron Ruddigore.
We love Bodnant because there's so much to see.
On a sadder note, we noticed so much poor behaviour from younglings today. It was embarassing to see such poor parenting too.
Thank the Gods I'm not a parent. 😁

I can't find the tag on this rhododendron, maybe it is R. 'Heaven Scent' but I am not at all certain. It is the last rhodie blooming in our garden, and happens to be right next to the deck we added a few years ago. As the day cooled down it suddenly became extremely fragrant, one assumes to attract evening pollinators such as moths. Take note of the lovely dark red bracts on the upper truss. It's around 12' tall in 20 years.
