Where these just growing in the wild? I like their orange color and the green background colors.

Yes these grow wild throughout the smokies. They bloom in the spring and can be so prolific that the mountainside can appear to be on fire!! Thank you for viewing!

Very well done image!
Azaleas and rhododendrons are very similar. In the Pacific Northwest, azaleas grow very well, but not wild. Rhododendrons, however, do just as you said--cover a whole hillside with a brilliant pink carpet.
Appreciate the post.
