May 28, 2004 - NCA>BRP>215...

On May 28, 2004, Sue Gardiner of New Zealand and Bob Stelloh looked at plants, with a focus on native azaleas and rhododendrons. We started at the National Native Azalea Repository at the North Carolina Arboretum, and continued along the Blue Ridge Parkway south from mile post 393 to 438. We then came back on the BRP and took highway 215 toward Rosman, North Carolina. After finding two calendulaceum with double blooms, we then returned to the NCA on the BRP. It was a good day!

Bob Stelloh took these images.
