... in my garden this early evening... I love the colour purple and in recent years have become most fond of all hydrangeas as they provide all year round interest and easy to look after, what's not to like. Happy Tuesday friends, almost back to normal, but not quite there yet.
Die Hortensien (Hydrangea) sind eine Pflanzengattung in der Familie der Hortensiengewächse (Hydrangeaceae). Sorten einiger ihrer Arten sind beliebte Ziersträucher. Die in Mitteleuropa bekannteste darunter ist die Gartenhortensie.
Das Auffällige in ihren Blütenständen sind weniger kleine fruchtbare Blüten als vielmehr unfruchtbare Schaublüten mit großen, farbigen oder weißen Kelchblättern, die am Rand des Blütenstandes stehen; bei den Zuchtformen der Gartenhortensie haben alle Blüten vergrößerte Kelchblätter und sind unfruchtbar.

- 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.
I saw this kind of hydrangea at my contact's photostream and found it very pretty. I wanted to see them by myself. I found it the other day at very close neighboor's yard.
The flower color changes from white to red in a short period.
This is called Kurenai which is a name of one kind of red colors.
There are many hydrangeas blooming here . I realized I have less oportunities to take photos since it is in rainy season now. So I try to go out when it is not raining.
Hydrangeas are popular garden shrubs with delicate heads of flowers in shades of pink, white or blue and pretty autumn colour and leaf shape. The mophead and lace-cap hydrangeas are most well-known for their ability to change colour in different soils.
Dichroa is a genus of 12 species of flowering plants in the family Hydrangeaceae, native to eastern and southeastern Asia. They are deciduous shrubs growing to 1-3 m tall, with their leaves arranged in opposite pairs. Courtesy: Wikipedia.
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, (*_*)
