Today's flowers

I spotted this unique flower when I was in Shenzhen recently. But I am sorry I don't know its name.

    Pretty sure they're azaelas - rhododendrons are much larger and have more than two "buds" comprising each flower head.
    Cheers.

    Wenn: Nice capture of the neat colors of the flower. I would say it is a double bloom an a Rhododendron.

Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people.
