She’s a 100 year old Crimson Azalea showstopper! – Reddit Post

She was planted the summer of 1923, the year my cottage was originally built. She’s located approximately 25 feet from a cliff that overlooks Lake Erie. The winters here are extremely brutal, not many ornamentals can withstand the harsh freezing winds that shear across Lake Erie. We’re also located on a migratory route so she attracts many bird species, especially the hummers. I have many spring arrivals, but she is my absolute favorite!
