Giant Rododendrons



Here at last are the long awaited pictures of the world's largest Rhododendrons (purple flowers) and some equally amazing Azaleas (red flowers). The Rhodies are to my knowledge, at least 30 years old, the Azaleas probably 10 to 15. This is what happens when you let your landscaping get out of control!!! If you look at the far away picture of the Rhodies, you will see Maya in the far right corner. It gives you some perspective as to how big these really are. (She's a little under three feet tall)

OMG those are HUGE! My parents said theirs are pretty big now too (I think they planted them when we moved there in 87). Hope you are having a great weekend.
