(Yesterday, we were travelling to visit family, and I didn’t get back to finish this post until today. So, here’s some Friday Tree Love)
You might have seen pictures of this live oak that lives across from the park in my neighborhood, but I don’t think I’ve shared it with the azaleas that just made it through an unusual March frost. A group of volunteers in the neighborhood planted the azaleas about 20 years ago.
Click on the images below to see the whole picture.

Beautiful!

Thank you!

Those azaleas are gorgeous. And imagine how proud they must feel in the company of such a lovely tree. Thanks for sharing. Blessing you.

I love your perspective of the azaleas’ relationship with the tree. 🙂 Blessings to you, Selma.

Stunningly beautiful — the flowers are magnified by the tree; the tree is magnified by the flowers! And Marley is bigger than I thought!
March 25, 2023 at 12:21 pm
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed the flowers and the live oak and love your insightful description of their enhancing relationship. Marley looks smaller at times and bigger at others. He weighs about 75 pounds – half my weight but twice as strong as me.

Oh, I hear that, too! Our Springer JJ went past 80lbs.. it was like walking a Volkswagen doing 30.

Ha!

Mama Oak is expansive and welcoming to all 🙂 The azaleas are beautiful 🙂
March 25, 2023 at 12:33 pm
Thank you for enjoying them with me. 🙂

That is such a beautiful tree, and scene. Of course, Marley adds a lot 😉
March 25, 2023 at 12:33 pm
Thanks, Dan. Marley always adds a lot. 🙂

Breathtakingly beautiful!!!

Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!

These azaleas are so beautiful. But our flowers are blooming later in May. Thanks Anita
March 25, 2023 at 12:46 pm
So glad you enjoyed these early bloomers! 🙂

Such a good idea to set the azaleas and tree together
March 25, 2023 at 12:47 pm
Yes! I can appreciate how much of an improvement it was now that the azaleas have matured.
March 25, 2023 at 1:41 pm
I did not know you could click on these pictures and see them in a larger or more complete format. Wow! Thanxk!
March 25, 2023 at 3:59 pm
You’re welcome. I think the clicking to see more is the case in a gallery. Glad I mentioned it.
March 28, 2023 at 12:28 pm
It’s really cool you can do that.
March 27, 2023 at 2:13 pm
Azaleas are new to me. Glad to see and learn about new flowers. Looks lovely. The mighty Oak is majestic!!!
March 27, 2023 at 9:21 pm
Thank you, Shilpa. Azaleas are abundant here in North Carolina near the east coast of the US. They come in white, this magenta color, and various shades of pink and red. Their stems are strong and woody. I’m glad you enjoyed them and the majestic oak.

Superb!! I cant decide which is more beautiful!! The combination is stunning!
March 29, 2023 at 9:58 pm
Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed the combination. 🙂

So so pretty and reminds me of bougainvillea. They are making each other look beautiful. Thanks for joining, JoAnna. I am working on today’s post and looking forward to seeing you around.
