Rhodo time.

There are plus or minus 1,000 species of
Rhododendrons worldwide.
Some, like Rhododendrum ponticum, are very invasive and very hard to get rid of once established.
Other like this miniature in our garden are a great delight.
How do you tell the difference between a Rhododendron and an Azalea?
Well the easiest way is to count the stamens.
In general Rhododendrons will have ten as in the photo. Azaleas will have five.
