rose + tree





Azalea, Rhododendron, 躑躅 (ツツジ, tsutsuji) . Some names.

"ツツジ" is actually a plant that does not exist. It is a plant except "サツキ (satsuki)" and "シャクナゲ (syakunage)" of Rhododendron to call "ツツジ" in Japan.

Rhododendron meaning 【rhodon】 rose, and 【dendron】 tree.

  1. Los rododendros con sus exquisitas flores rosáceas son unas plantas que salpican con elegancia los terrenos. Aquí, en España, se encuentran en el Pirineo.

    Saludos.
