Thank you for your visit, most appreciated!
Lacecap hydrangea. Seen near Dorking, Surrey, England.
Thank you for your visits / comments / faves!
Trying for a different idea on a Hydrangea here so took the flower buds rather than the flowers.
Thank you for your favourites. :O)
Just a couple of weeks ago in the Lakes and the hydrangeas still had lots of colour. Pretty sure it'll all be gone now though!
Climbing hydrangea grows in moist areas of the mountains, clinging to trees and cliffs. They can grow to a height of 5-20m, and their white flowers bloom in wet season in Japan.

Hydrangea petialaris.
蔓紫陽花（ツルアジサイ）は雨や湿気の多い山林で育ち, 高木や岩崖に絡みながら這い登り, 高さ5m～20m位まで成長します。 この蔓紫陽花も大きな杉の木に巻き付いてます。幹や枝に多くの気根を有し空気中の水分を吸収する働き持ってます。梅雨の時期の6月に白い花を多数咲かせますが, 鬱蒼とした林の中で咲くその姿はとても幻想的です。当日は霧雨で靄が発生してくれました。
I found this sprig from a hydrangea on my walk this morning so it had to come home with me to be photographed.

Thank you for your visit, flickr friends, enjoy today!.....Pat...xo
****A long story here if you have time; it's been on my mind especially in these troubled times
About ten years ago in one of my favorite Spanish classes, 12 and 13 year olds...we had a lot of fun while they were learning Spanish:).....In this class was a Muslim boy (very few minorities in our school at that time) who called himself Sam...he wanted to be like the others. Sam had a lot of medical problems from birth, was only three+ feet tall and came to class in a wheelchair, he had an aide accompanying him.
It was a delight to meet with him and his parents for conferences; wonderful people were his parents.
One day Sam and a classmate presented an unmemorized Spanish dialogue; I still remember how 6 foot Zach stooped over to read his part as Sam was holding the dialogue.
The other students treated him like anyone else...except they were unusually gentle with him.
Once a month we as a homeroom, Sam was in my noon homeroom also that year...would cross the street to a local Subway shop for lunch, a highlight for the group! Sam fretted because he did not want to wear the safety strap across the wheelchair...his aide and I had to firmly tell him it was the law. Sam pouted like a middle schooler might:)....but soon was enjoying his sandwich with his friends.
The next year, eighth grade, I didn't have Sam in class or homeroom....by this time he started going by his birth name, Hussein. I would look for him in the cafeteria or hall....noticed he wasn't doing well, an effort for him to speak...he didn't sit up straight in the wheelchair...
In the beginning of the following school year I asked Jackie, his aide, how he was doing and she said.....'He died in August', there was no notice in the newspaper, not unusual for practicing Muslims at that time and perhaps even now..... I had no idea.....I felt great sorrow and every August since then I remember Sam/Hussein.
....and so I will always remember....this unique boy who did his best and provided something special in his Spanish class and in my life too....and as well, his remarkable parents who showed much love for him....
August....x...a time also for a refreshed sense of looking for good amidst the bad today, in looking for positive solutions. My two cents worth....
My other obsession :-)
Flypaper textures used...peach blush and Ovid Banished.
Have a lovely weekend everyone!

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, (*_*)

This one was taken much closer to home, actually in the front yard. A green hydrangea leaf from 2 years ago.
Hydrangeas were brought to Europe in 1736 by Peter Collison from the Pennsylvania colony. The name “hydrangea” was given to it because the big flower blooms were thought to look like water pitchers.
This is a photograph of one of my hydrangea shrubs in full bloom. It was taken with a vintage Helios 44-2 lens at f5.6 that still affords me moments of magic.

- I got this mini Hydrangea plant for free in severe dried-out condition from a local florist. After 4 years in my garden it is is still only 20 cm high, but flowering it does very well.
- Deze mini Hydrangea plant kreeg ik gratis van een lokale bloemist omdat hij geheel verdroogd was. Na 4 jaar in mijn tuin is hij nog nauwelijks 20 cm hoog, maar bloeien doet hij prima.
