Azaleas
at the National Arboretum
Washington DC
The cherry blossoms get lots of attention in the press here in DC and
around the country, but for my money it is the azaleas which are truly
Washington's most beautiful flower. These photo's are all taken at the
National Arboretum in Northeast Washington, only a few miles from the
Capitol. The time to visit is in Late April or early May. Aside from
the Arboretum which is just off New York Ave as you enter the city from
the Baltimore Washington Parkway, Many neighborhoods in upper
Northwest, DC, and Takoma Park, MD have gorgeous azaleas. Enough
words... check out the pictures. These were all taken with a Polaroid
PDC700 digital camera.
