Wild Pink Azalea

Wild Honeysuckle is another name for this wild Azalea. I have heard it refered to as the Swamp Pink.... but can not find it listed that way. I am thinking that it may be a local name for it.  It is not easy to see from this photo that the ends of the stamen are orange/yellow and the pistil end is green. If you click on the photo you can see this ... though a little blurry. Such a nice detail. I am always astounded by the details of flowers when you get up close and really look at them.

Where I found it : at the edge of a wooded yard
