Beiträge, die mit rododendron getaggt sind


I was walking in my garden yesterday looking for something to photograph. At the moment the rhododendron "Cunningham's White" is starting to bloom. It is an early blooming rhododendron, in the Netherlands already at the end of April/beginning of May. And although several of the beautiful white flowers are already open, I was especially fascinated by the buds. They are pink, which is special, because the flower is white, but that strange way in which the petals are folded. It is a miracle that they do not come out wrinkled. Photographed so close, it even has something creepy. Something fleshy, like the inside of an ear or something. In any case, it is worth taking a closer look. #flowers #bloomscrolling #flower #gardensofpixelfed #gardening #garden #pixelfed #macro #macrophotography #amateurfotografie #photos #photography #rododendron
On a dark green background you look up close and from the side at a pink bud of a rhododendron. There are several flower buds present, of which the bottom ones are the longest and thickest. Further inwards the pink buds are narrower and less long. The still folded petals are clearly visible. There are edges along the length. It looks a bit strangely fleshy. It reminds me of an ear. At the bottom of the flower a sturdy flower base with yellow-green sepals. Around it are a few large green rododendron leaves.
