Throughout Melbs right now, #azelea’s are out in bloom and they’re everywhere!
They produce such gorgeous flowers… so many different varieties and colours. And their patterning is something else.
A truly special and visually pleasing plant.
Did you know? 🤔
Most azaleas are poisonous.
They contain #Grayanotoxins, which are a group of closely related neurotoxins.
Grayanotoxins are produced by #Rhododendron species and other plants in the family #Ericaceae.

Arctostaphylos uva-ursi (Bearberry) always makes for a cheery spot of color during Winter along the Front Range. #Ericaceae #bearberry #hiking #plants #botany #nature #photography
