The colour is indeed wonderful! And the softness of the image makes everything so pleasant to look at!

They are truly beautiful in any colour, but these stand out because they are unusual. Good shot.

Perfect title, Marion ... delicate, soft and beautiful ... the stamens remind me of a youngster's long, long eyelashes.

Hello, Marion... It's normal, this is a pic ofAzalea mollis... the foliage is smaller and not persistent like the rhododendron;

@Francesc B.: Thanks for your comment Francesc and your always helpful information. Unless I plant them myself I am never sure if they are a rhododendrun or an azelea althought the petals on this one and the clusters were fairly large.
Evelyne Dubos from Le Mans, France
Yesterday you show us vivid orange poppy and today this delicat and soft orange rodo (or azalea as says Francesc... ).Nature is so wonderful...
