Rhodies



We know that summer is here, because the rhododendrons are in bloom. Along one edge of our property is a big wall of rhodies (as our landscaper friend calls them).

When we first moved in I was not very fond of these plants and suggested they be removed. The landscaper gave me an "are your crazy" look and said do you know how many people would love to have these ? A year later, I have changed my mind. They act as a nice buffer and it is beautiful when they are all in bloom.

Luckily the deer have shown no interest in these bushes. Hopefully the new fawn that visits will follow his Mom's lead and ignore these flowers.
