Azaleas and a dogwood tree at Biltmore Estate, Asheville, North Carolina. March 14, 2011.
This is my post for the Scenic Sunday meme, which shares beautiful scenes from around the world. To see more Scenic Sunday posts, or to join and show your own pictures, click HERE.
This past Thursday Betsy and I returned to the Biltmore Estate near Asheville, North Carolina. We went to see the tulips as part of their Festival of Flowers, but once we got there we were so taken by the beautiful azaleas and dogwoods in bloom that we checked out the Azalea Garden first. The picture above was taken near the start of the path through Azalea Garden. The colors were absolutely spectacular.
