Hydrangea / Gartenhortensie (Hydrangea macrophylla)

in our garden - Frankfurt-Nordend

More pictures, showing the diversity of this plant species throughout the whole year, in my Hydrangea Collection

One to tick off my list to photograph :) I saw and bought the most beautiful stems of Hydrangeas

The bloom of blue hydrangea.

This species retains something of Hydrangea macrophylla f. normalis (‘Gaku-ajisai’ in Japanese), the original species of various hydrangea cultivars.

Garden, Groningen, The Netherlands

HSS!

Thanks for Viewing.

Another closeup shot of the blue hydrangea.

Pink hydrangea flowers, with the large showy ones outside the small fertile (I think) ones.

Thank you for looking. Isn't God a great artist?

From my garden

Canon EOS 6D - f/6.3 - 1/100sec - 100mm - ISO 5000

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.

The "Smile on Saturday" challenge theme "get nature in your home!" came just in time to take this macro.

This photo was taken inside the house, camera in one hand, flower between two fingertips of the other one !

Hydrangea leaves can be large (about hand size, in this case) and beautiful. They can have different shapes. This is an oakleaf hydrangea.

Thank you for looking! Isn't God a great artist?
