We had our usual business getting some plants off to Halifax for the ARHS Member Sale plus the quite large task of hosting our sale here at home on May19-20th. That event went well. The entire weekend cooperated with lovely weather.

The blooming of the rhododendrons is charging along, although this season has quite diminished flower buds. Some weather weirdness of last summer is likely responsible for far fewer flower buds on many plants. Still lots to look at and try to keep some tabs on.
We came across a very pretty bloom on a 2006 seedling. Records show it was from leftover seed from a 1999 exchange. 'Goldfort' x R. vernicosum(peach)....cross made by John Weagle. A branch was broken , so we brought it in for a bit of a bouquet.
The editor for this Blog is acting very strange today. Hard to say how this may actually translate!

It translated very well indeed, we are very glad to say, and glad to look as well at your delightful blooms, quite lovely, I am always mesmerized by both, Rhododendrons and Azaleas. A garden to visit, as time becomes more available to me with each passing day.
A Garden visit wouldn't be amiss. The next few weeks are quite an interesting time as rhododendrons and azaleas take center stage.
