This weekend will be the last chance to see the grove in all its splendor of the 2019 full bloom, but it will still be worth the trip in the next 10 days or so.

This coming week and the following weekend will be a good show (at least as good as it’s going to get this year-good but not as fantastic as it has been in the past).

Hey folks-It was not raining this week so I took a few extra pictures to make up for last week. So far the weather seems pretty dry this month. The prediction of rain is a definite maybe. How will it affect the timing? Who knows? It is getting closer to full bloom at the grove, […]

Hi folks-As the hybrid rhododendrons are winding down, the bloom time at Rhododendron State Park is getting closer. However, we may not see any flowers for another week or so. Most of the flowers will be out in full by the middle of July as usual. However, the bugs are as thick as ever (also […]

Hey folks,Even though your backyard (improved and hybridized) rhododendron bushes may have already bloomed, the native Rhododendron Maximus at Rhododendron State Park aren’t even close to flowering yet. The flowers here are due to be blooming in two to three weeks with “peak bloom” around the middle of July or a few days later. This […]

By: Tom Fischer, Interpretive Ranger at Monadnock State Park The bloom at Rhododendron State Park is officially over, and this will be the last report for 2018. While the bloom wasn’t very spectacular this year, hopefully all the vegetative growth that occurred will ensure better blooms in years to come. Walking through the loop one […]

By: Tom Fischer, Interpretive Ranger at Monadnock State Park The bloom at Rhododendron State Park is just beginning to wane, but there are still a good number of flowers showing off.

By: Tom Fischer, Interpretive Ranger at Monadnock State Park In the absence of the illustrious Ted Lenk, I will endeavor to write the world a quick bloom report for Rhododendron State Park.

Hey Folks- I went to the grove a day early in order to avoid the rain forecast for Thursday 6/28, but not much difference can be seen in a day or two unless one looks quite closely. Indeed, all plants are metabolizing and growing at an amazing rate this time of year. A microscope or […]

Hey Folks, Not much is new (visibly, at least) at the grove this week as far as the blooms go. Each week when I walk the loop I notice a few more flower buds (not new ones, I just didn’t see them before) but the numbers are down this year. The buds are still as […]
