We saw some flowering in October too and wondered whether there are autumn flowering rhodies like there are autumn and winter flowering varieties of camellias?

Well it certainly looks pretty in pink even if it’s a bit odd. That’s a lovely blue sky too. Here’s mine today: https://grahamsisland.com/2022/11/21/nothing-special/
