I have several different hydrangeas growing in my garden, including this lace-cap. It's not as robust as the others, but this year managed to give me a few blooms to enjoy.

I have these on the east side of my house, and they get most of the moisture and remain in the shade most of the day. They are on one side of the arbor and can be viewed when one walks up my pathway to the house. I LOVE that blue/pink shade ...a nod indeed to the highly acidic soil I have.

Have a great week!

  1. Your hydrangeas look more beautiful every year. I always look forward to your rendition on wc paper. This mild winter was good for all hydrangeas. You certainly captured that "blue".
