There are so many azaleas blooming here at this time of year that I almost stop noticing them. Instead, it’s this little flower that represents the real arrival of spring to me. They pop up in the yard and close by, and I always try to avoid mowing until they’ve stopped blooming. This picture is a little larger than actual size, depending on your screen’s resolution—the blossoms are usually about an inch or so across (2-3cm).
Another sign that the real warm weather is here: when I went out for lunch my car was uncomfortably hot. We may get another brief cold spell, but it’s pretty much over now.
