Beautiful expression of spring in and around your yard. A wild Azalea eh? Wow, that’s pretty fun. The only sad part about flowers is that they don’t last longer. But I guess that teaches us appreciation, how to keep moving, to let go but also to hold on to what is beautiful. 😉 Thanks for sharing.

I wish flowers lasted longer too. The hot dry summer is not fun for me. But then in late summer the dahlias bloom and I’m happy again. 😀

Without my yard, I would be lost!!! I love yours; you must have good growing weather? I am on the coast and so somewhat limited, but still rhododendrons and azaleas grow well here. Roses have a really hard time with fungus, but they can grow.

I’m not a big rose fan. Just think Portland is known for its roses. I do live in a growing mecca for plants. We have a lot of nursery farms in the countryside. 😀

Hi Cee, I found you on Jo’s Monday walk. Lovely photos as usual. I think we’ve talked about the fact that we’re both from Oregon – I so miss Azaleas, and Rhodendrens, your post brings back memories of my childhood back yard. Thanks for sharing.

A lovely stroll around your place Cee 🙂 Is Chris the gardener?

She is more than me. Most plants are perennials, bushes or bulbs so it is fairly easy to maintain.

The close up of your pink Azalea… I don’t think it is an Azalea:

They only have five stamen.
Unless you are outside the US?

It’s an azalea. And yes I am in the US. There are many varieties 😀

I like the wisteria too. It is actually my neighbors, but it flows over onto my fence and yard. I don’t complain because I’ve always liked wisteria 😀

I guess I’ll have to return the favour and give you the tour of my patio and roof terrace. That’s all the outdoor space that I have, but we do have some beautiful scenery on the doorstep 🙂 🙂 Thanks so much for doing me the honour to link up. I’m very jealous of your burgeoning rhododendron. In my English garden we had several smaller ones and an azalea. I do miss them.

We have three rhododendrons. Two are taller than our house. The one I have photographed here is only about 6-7 feet. I would love to see your walk around your terrace 😀
