Craggy Gardens - Blue Ridge Parkway, June 2017
Rhododendrons in bloom near Graveyard Fields on the Blue Ridge Parkway
Got up today and headed up to the Blue Ridge Parkway near Graveyard Fields. I had heard that the rhododendrons were blooming up there. Sure enough, they were. But unlike the Craggy Garden area, compositions with mountains views with rhododendrons in the foreground are very limited. I was fortunate to find this photo op at the East Fork Overlook - elevation 4955 feet. This is one of my favorite times to visit the Parkway. The other is autumn. It doesn't get much better than this.

Rhododendrons are native to Asia, but have been cultivated since ancient times. They are commonly found throughout Europe and North America. Reading http://www.warrington-worldwide.co.uk/2022/01/13/pros-and-cons-of-hiring-assignment-helpers-online/ article now. There are over 200 species of rhododendrons, with some varieties being more popular than others.
