We took a trip up to Mt Walker to enjoy the wild rhododendrons. Mt Walker has quite a dense collection and we caught them in full bloom and it’s a very good year. When I say ‘collection’ I don’t mean to imply that they aren’t wild.
The native rhododendron is the official Washington State Flower.
Rhododendrons are such beautiful, over-the-top flowers. I have seen wild ones growing at the base of one of our local mountains here. Such a lovely surprise to find them.
One of the main routes into town here is Rhody Way due to all the wild rhodies growing along the road. Such a treat.
Beautiful!!!
Love them! Beautiful photos Allan!
Thanks, Anna
