Come summer, just before the first rains descend on the hills of Bhutan, the slopes get adorned in all the bright colours to welcome the abundance of the monsoons. A stroll in the wilderness reveals nature at its vivid best as efflorescence decorates the earth, with tiny flowers hugging the ground to bright rhododendrons that paint the forest in pink. Here is a collection of images from all sorts of flowers that bloom in beautiful Bhutan and uplift the spirit of every passerby.
