{Glenn Dale Azalea 'Mother of Pearl' in Our Garden}

On March 27 we got that heavy rain and thus I no longer could capture these beautiful 'Mother of Pearl' Glenn Dale Azaleas in Our Garden... Too bad for having to wait another year for being able to do so! All that I can show you is below, with big rain drops on them. This 'Mother of Pearl' ←(right click it) Azalea has white stamens and also a kind of leopard spotting. There would be lots of things to see on a tour from Book an Event with us.
These Azaleas are very unusual as the stamens are by far not as long as on the other varieties I've shown till now. Hope you enjoyed this 'wet' version of 'Mother of Pearl' hybrids by Glenn Dale.

    hallo liebe mariette,

    die azalee ist ein traum! das sind wirklich wunderschöne blumen, nur leider auch schwer am leben zu erhalten für mich. ich hatte heuer das erste mal eine, die die ganze blütezeit bei mir herinnen überlebt hat. ich hab sie fast täglich gegossen und immer ausgezupft, jetzt ist sie schon verblüht, leider. azaleen im garten zu haben muss toll sein!!

    lieben gruß und schönes wochenende!

    Hello Mariette,
    the Azalea ist too beautiful and the waterdrops add a very fresh touch. Some artifical silk roses here are adorned with artifical waterdrops to give them a fresh and true look.
    Greetings, Johanna
