Rhododendron

I'm stuck at home all this week without transport, still got a heavy cold that appears to be turning into a chest infection. Not a bad place to be - the garden is lovely at this time of year before it gets jaded. There are a number of different rhododendrons in the garden but this is my favourite. It doesn't last long and the tiniest drop of rain shrivels it up but when the conditions are right it's spectacular.
