February 4th and Our Rhody Has Bloomed!

We have one rhododendron in our yard that blooms every year in February. The rest of them bloom at different times as we get into spring. But this one is our early riser! There are several blooms on the bush and lots of buds. It brightens up our yard on these winter days!

A beautiful shrub for sure. We have them here in the Smokies as well. Great blooms, Vern. Vote.

I am a bit envious, we are at least two months away from any signs of flowers.

Wow! Keep it coming. We have been in New Hampshire for the past three weeks. It has been cold!!! This morning the snow is coming down! I look forward to getting back to the early spring of the Pacific Northwest next week!

What a beautiful rhododendron, well captured! Just seems so early; I guess spring must really be on its way.
