When I post my tropicals on DG, I got a lot of zone envy responses from tropical plant lovers.

Well, for all of you up north, which is pretty much everybody when your in south Florida I have to say that nothing tops your Spring .

I just got back from Seattle and Vancouver while on my first ever Spring ski trip and visited The Washington Park Arboretum. I have never seen anything like the billowing display of rhododendrons in bloom , one after another after another, just amazing. I just wanted to share some of the pics I took

I did arrive home just in time to see a couple of blooms on my Vireya Ring of Fire burst open, nothing as spectacular but still thrills me here.
