These hydrangeas were well past their prime, but I've never seen such unusually coloured ones, and never have I seen them multicoloured like these were. They were quite amazing in the late afternoon sunlight @ Mt Macedon.

 

Thanks everyone for your kind messages, I managed to enjoy some time out with the FFF+ gang on Saturday and am doing very short processing sessions! Hopefully I can keep up with your lovely images, even if its only hitting the fav button.

Floriography is the language of flowers. Hydrangea meaning is "Fickleness". ("You change your mind too often.")

Beautiful pink and blue hydrangeas at the pond in Trebah Garden. They have a valley full of hydrangeas as well as a lot of 'champion' trees: the oldest, the tallest, the widest, ... you name it!

Hydrangea, common names hydrangea or hortensia is a genus of 70–75 species of flowering plants native to Asia and the Americas. It belongs to the Hydrangeaceae family. ‘Hydrangea’ is derived from Greek and means ‘water vessel’, which is in reference to the shape of its seed capsules. By far the greatest species diversity is in eastern Asia, notably Korea, China, and Japan. Most are shrubs 1 to 3 meters tall, but some are small trees, and others reaching up to 30 m by climbing up trees. They can be either deciduous or evergreen, though the widely cultivated temperate species are all deciduous. Flowers are produced from early spring to late autumn; they grow in flowerheads most often at the ends of the stems. 35011

Oakleaf hydrangeas boast white pyramidal bloom clusters with color-changing capabilities. They emerge creamy white and age to dusky pink and green as summer progresses. By late fall, petals become light tan and papery, persisting on the stem into winter or yielding dark brown seeds for added interest.

This Hydrangea it survives in the pot.

Looking Close... on Friday: Blue on a white background.

Interesting how sometimes the blues go toward green and other times toward mauve with almost the same set-up.

My fascination with hydrangeas captured with a macro lens.

 

Background texture and butterfly created with Dream by Wombo, blended with my photo of a hydrangea, then further blended and softened with Pastello and PicLight.

 

Such a short time ago, the Hydrangeas were plump and purple. Now they are fading to various shades of pink, purple, green and yellow, each flower unique in its Autumn colors.

 

Much appreciation for your comments, awards and faves. Thank you all!

Purple hydrangeas symbolize a desire to deeply understand someone.

Every year I take some dried Hydrangea flower heads inside the house for decoration.

After some months, due to dust and tiny spider cobwebs, they are moved to the compost heap.

This picture was taken just before that moment and processed somewhat.

 

Garden, Groningen, The Netherlands

I don’t usually post two photos, but if I string them out over weeks you all will think I have switched from old abandoned things to pretty things. What will that do to my reputation as Mistress of Decay?

white annabelle hydrangeas for monochrome bokeh thursday!
