Looking forward to our village's first #OpenGardens in less than two weeks' time (june 30th/July 1st). But sometimes there's just too much #weeding to do, So we're making a feature of them. After all plants are only weeds if they are in the wrong place, right? #Blackfordby

Pictured today here in NW Leics, it's the time of the Rhododendron, surely one of the most colourful plants in any garden.
