I *heart* my azaleas

We planted azaleas last year and I have been looking forward to their first bloom all year. I love azaleas. The only draw back is that they only bloom for a short time, but I think that is part of their appeal. Once a year for a few weeks they have a beautiful show of bright, vibrant colors. We've been doing a lot of work in the yard these past few weeks, so I'll have to post more pictures as other things start to bloom.
