I love all the colors and varieties of Hydrangeas and these are two of the most common. They always wow me.
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.

Most hydrangeas are deciduous, and it is quite normal for them to lose their leaves in Autumn to winter. As soon as the spring days warm up, you should see the buds starting to swell and to leaf out. Hydrangeas are best pruned in late winter or very early spring and can be cut to the ground each year with no damage.
I found this sprig from a hydrangea on my walk this morning so it had to come home with me to be photographed.

I may not have time to answer or acknowledge your visit here or any comments you leave right away but, I will thank you now in advance.
Hydrangeas, which come in types that can flourish in sun or shade, offer huge bouquets of clustered flowers, in various arrangements from mophead to lacecap from summer through fall. Varieties of hydrangea differ in size of plant and flower shape, flower color, and blooming time.
Happy Thursday!!
Thank you for your visits, kind comments and faves. Always greatly appreciated.

Hydrangea flowers ... yes.
Foliage ... doesn't match.
I had to look twice at this, as the foliage didn't look quite right. Upon closer inspection, there are hydrangea leaves hidden underneath.
But I don't know what the surrounding foliage is. My cousin thinks it's Ivy.
A good effect though, quite eye catching for the passer by.
For a closer look, please click on the image. Thank you.
