Hopeland Azalea

Hopeland Azalea is from my Flora collection and was composed at Hopeland Gardens in Aiken, SC.  They were fairly late bloomers, and I was a bit surprised to find such nice, soft colors.  I framed them so that layers would be created from the front to the back while keeping the stigma and stamens within the zone of sharpness.
