My beautifully blooming hydrangea... we are so hard on these beautiful flowers. They were planted in direct sunlight but prefer partial so they wilt every afternoon, yet they still bloom for us every year and put on quite a “show” ... until they just can’t hang any longer lol thank you hydrangea for being such good sports 💕
An example of Planar bokeh. Some color tonning is done with Darktable. Not that I do not like original combination of lens and Nikon standard presset, but tI eas in this mood when I "develloped" the photo.
The Hydrangeas did very well this year, although in general the heads are smaller probably due to the hot summer.
Now some have been dried and form a lovely dash of colour in the room.
Hydrangea, the name, comes from the Greek words "hydro" or water, and "angeion," or vase = water vase, they prefer a lot of water.
A very ancient plant, found in fossils going back thousands of years.
Flower lovers will know that there is a flower language.
Every sentiment is expressed in one form or another by delicate blooms.
Of course, even the experts disagree on the "true meaning" of many flowers and most have different meanings to different people.
So, while all flowers convey thoughtfulness and love, a gift of flowers for a special someone will always create its own personal meaning, too.
HYDRANGEA - Thank You for Understanding.
Have a wonderful day and thank you for your comments with all my heart, M, (*_*)

we still have a foot of snow on the ground. spring feels far away. yet there are hydrangeas in puddles. and the birds happily sing. so, i patiently wait.
……with a couple of extra’s, namely Catmint a pale pink Peony and sporadic blue & white Canterbury Bells. I took the low PoV option to include the picture postcard sky. I note that in 2019 I have just 20 'Garden' shots in the file, whereas in 2020 thus far 264 with a further 158 in the 366 file, now I wonder why that might be? Lets hope not too many flaunt the Covid guidelines and cause a second wave!!! Alan:-)

Hydrangea is a genus of 70/75 species of flowering plants native to southern and eastern Asia and the Americas. By far the greatest species diversity is in eastern Asia, notably China, Japan, and Korea.
One of the few flowering plants that stay with you all year if you care for them. Some people cut the dried stems in late autumn to keep the dried foliage in a vase. I prefer dried hydrangea to the summer flower because of its uniqueness. Texture underlay added (my own). Taken at Riverwood Park.
Hydrangea, common names hydrangea or hortensia, is a genus of over 75 species of flowering plants native to Asia and the Americas. By far the greatest species diversity is in eastern Asia, notably China, Korea, and Japan. Most are shrubs 1–3 m (3 ft 3 in – 9 ft 10 in) tall, but some are small trees, and others lianas reaching up to 30 m (100 ft) by climbing up trees. They can be either deciduous or evergreen, though the widely cultivated temperate species are all deciduous.
Hydrangea is derived from Greek and means ‘water vessel’ (from ὕδωρ water + ἄγγος or αγγεῖον vessel), in reference to the shape of its seed capsules. The earlier name, Hortensia, is a Latinised version of the French given name Hortense, honoring French astronomer and mathematician Nicole-Reine Hortense Lepaute. This claim is disputed in page 88 on citation 10 at Nicole-Reine Hortense Lepaute page, which says: "Larousse considers this an injustice, and remarks that it has led many persons to the erroneous notion that "Hortensia" was one of her names; it was probably only the Latin adjective from "hortus."
In most species, the flowers are white, but in others (notably H. macrophylla), they can be blue, red, pink, light purple, or dark purple. In these species, floral colour change occurs due to the presence of aluminum ions which are available or tied up depending upon the soil pH. For H. macrophylla and H. serrata cultivars, the flower colour can be determined by the relative acidity of the soil: an acidic soil (pH below 7), will have available aluminum ions and typically produce flowers that are blue to purple, whereas an alkaline soil (pH above 7) will tie up aluminum ions and result in pink or red flowers. This is caused by a color change of the flower pigments in the presence of aluminum ions which can be taken up into hyperaccumulating plants.[ Lowering the pH of potting soils or mixes usually does not change the flower colour to blue, because these soils have no aluminum ions. The ability to blue or pink a hydrangea is also influenced by the cultivar. Some plants are selected for their ability to be blued, while others are bred and selected to be red, pink, or white. The flower colour of most other Hydrangea species is not affected by aluminum and cannot be changed or shifted. Hydrangeas are also nicknamed 'Change Rose'.

園内には立ち枯れの紫陽花がいっぱいです。
夕陽に透かして見ると蝶々みたいでなかなか面白いです。
久しぶりの充実した撮影に満足し名物の「ハケ上だんご」を食べて帰路につきました。
There were many hydrangeas that were naturally dried flowers in the park.
Looking through the hydrangea in the setting sun, it looks like a butterfly and is quite interesting.
I was satisfied with the fulfilling shooting after a long absence. Then, I ate the famous "Dango on the top of the cliff" and went home.
