Hydrangea’s

Hydrangea’s are so lush and beautiful this time of year.

We have four large bushes, at the lake cottage, and they’re just full of blooms.

This pretty French blue color shows up in the early spring and then changes color, during the fall,

to different shades of blues, purple, pinks and greens.

You see them everywhere, here in the south.

I love the look of Hydrangea's in old blue ball jars,

or I sometimes put them in this vintage bird cage.

They’re also so simple and easy to dry, I especially like to use them in arrangements

during the fall and winter months.

They are usually a long lasting cut flower, these were cut four days ago and they

still look fresh.

it was the perfect spring morning to enjoy a nice cup of hot tea

in the courtyard,

along with the sounds of chirping birds, trickling water from the fountain…….

I do so wish my blue hydrangea would grow. I have a huge white one and love the colour of your blooms. I'm off to click your "Follow" button, Mary.
