A RHODODENDRON MEMORY

A RHODODENDRON MEMORY

During the months of April, May and June, along the Oregon coast, especially in the Florence area, the roadsides are lined with forests, with beautiful natural Rhododendrons at the base of the trees all in bloom. It is quite a delight to drive for miles with all of this pink and green splendor! The city of Florence even has a Rhododendron Festival usually scheduled during the middle of May when they are all in full bloom.

In the six years I lived there I took many drives all around the area and I miss the beauty of them blanketing the forests.
