Hydrangea, commonly named the 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.

There is a long association of Hydrangeas with Nymans because they are so suited to the soil type. Many varieties date back to the 1960’s when the Messel family were well known for showing blooms at both the Chelsea Flower Show and at RHS shows. The romantic setting of the house and ruins lends itself to large groups of mop-head and lace-cap varieties which can be seen on the main lawn
…… All caught up & back on track! Another garden shot for my #219 picture of the day today, many parts of the garden are beginning to look very much like Autumn! But still some colour dotted about - I liked this Hydrangea when you get up really close, taken on my phone in Apple RAW and edited in Lightroom. Alan:-)

Hydrangea is a genus of more than 70 species of flowering plants native to Asia and the Americas. Hydrangea is also used as the common name for the genus; some (particularly H. macrophylla) are also often called hortensia. The genus was first described from Virginia in North America, but 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.
The flowers of many hydrangeas act as natural pH indicators, producing blue flowers when the soil is acidic and pink ones when the soil is alkaline.

Dried hydrangea blooms in warm autumn tones stand against a sunlit limestone brick wall in Oak Park, Illinois. Their papery, rust-brown flower clusters cast delicate shadows on the textured stone, creating a quiet study in late-season beauty.
Pouring rain for days does not mute the colour or stifle the imminent popping of the central flowers of this hydrangea cultivar. In my waterlogged Gold Coast hinterland garden.
