Paprika Spiced - a photo on Flickriver

Paprika Spiced

            The rhododendron Paprika Spiced, in the foreground, is located in Bed B (aka the Yellow Bed ) of Homestead Park. I hadn't seen this one at full bloom before this year. I either caught it late after it's blooming was over or at it's early budding. Nice to see what it should really look like!
