Bare is best when placing a baby to sleep in a crib. By creating the toughest crib safety standards in the world and urging parents to keep pillows, quilts, heavy blankets, and sleep positioners out of the crib, CPSC has made great strides to ensure that babies and toddlers have a safe sleep.
Dexter Estate photo. In the Philadelphia and New York City areas, our best rhododendrons bloom from mid-May to June first or even through the first week in June. We do have R. mucronulatum, and a few of its varieties and hybrids, in late March and early April, and we do have R. maximum in late June and early July.
After many years of missing the bloom at Roan Highlands, I finally saw the mountaintop in full bloom on June 26, 2001. These are just a few images I took of the purple Catawba Rhododendrons (R. catawbiense) and the beautiful yellow and orange Flame Azaleas (R. calendulaceum) that day. I parked my car at Carvers Gap expecting to take a short hike for about an hour, but stayed out there for six hours instead, hiking past Engine Gap and Jane Bald all the way to Grassy Ridge.
