Mountain Ivy

The rhododendrons are gone but the mountain ivy (as the locals call mountain laurel) is now in full bloom. They are not as "showy" as the rhododendrons but ...


... their glory is the beauty of their delicate blossoms up close.


The hummingbirds must love them.


The bushes below the deck (as seen from the ledge) are beginning to form a mass.


Remember those ferns that sprouted up overnight? They are now 12 to 18 inches in height and carpet the ground under the laurels down in the Hillside Garden.
