“Purple Rhododendron in Bloom Near Blue Ridge Parkway” is the serene title of this vintage linen postcard, which beautifully showcases one of the most enchanting sights along the Parkway. A lush field of purple rhododendron spills over the rolling hills, their blossoms catching the light of a gentle spring morning. The scene evokes a quiet stillness, the kind you find only on a peaceful drive through the Blue Ridge Mountains when the world seems to slow down. Completed during the New Deal era, the Blue Ridge Parkway was designed not just as a road but as a journey through some of the most scenic parts of the eastern United States. Every curve offers a new view, and in bloom season, the rhododendron reigns supreme. This postcard captures that fleeting beauty with timeless charm. This would look great framed or make an excellent addition to any collection.
