Blushing Pinks

Some of our early wildflowers are actually shrubs -

Rhodora - like fireworks or explosions in flower form

and bog laurel (which I hope to photograph better tomorrow)

both grow in swampy or boggy areas, sometimes side-by-side which I hope to find tomorrow when I explore a new bog (well, new to me anyway, I suspect it's a few thousand years old). :rolleyes:

Very nicely done WD. Love that Bog Laurel shot especially.

Beautiful captures of gorgeous flowers, Wicked D!

thanks ladies. Here's another pink beauty, fringed polygala -
