Love this pastel colors of hydrangeas, however, depends on the soil you have, "Blue in acid soil; Pink in alkaline soil".
Hydrangea
Hydrangea or Hortensia is a genus of 70–75 species of flowering plants native to southern and eastern Asia (China, Japan, Korea, the Himalayas, and Indonesia) and the Americas. By far the greatest species diversity is in eastern Asia, notably China, Japan, and Korea. Most are shrubs 1 to 3 meters tall, but some are small trees.
Hydrangea flowers are produced from early spring to late autumn; they grow in flowerheads (corymbs or panicles) most often at the ends of the stems.
In most species the flowers are white, but in some species (notably H. macrophylla), can be blue, red, pink, light purple, or dark purple.
And this particular Hydrangea stands proud in our garden with beautiful sunset colours in the background.

Thank you all for visiting and your kind comments, awards and faves - I appreciate them all.
Hydrangeas are what I consider to be good value plants , as once established they will flower prolifically for months . This one is just in its second year, in my garden , but doing well.

Playing with my macro lens 90mm in my garden, this beautiful hydrangea teller blue are blooming until late august.
Growing in my garden. I think the wee spots on the petals are because of the unusually dry conditions recently.
... is on its way!
