A bit of #bloomscrolling to try'n brighten the bleak outlook.
I can always tell when I'm due for a spring frost, yesterday my early rhodies, camelia's & peaches were showing nicely, today.. all a bit brown lol.
@_timemit_ There is something beautiful about rhododendrons (and cultivars) with basal blotches.
@davidjamesweir I never expected to get into rhododendrons but got hooked in my early 20's and created a collection of cuttings from the collection at Barnhourie Mill and the dear Dr Paton who was already in her 90's at that point. My garden is full of mature specimens now :)
