Growing in my garden. I think the wee spots on the petals are because of the unusually dry conditions recently.
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?

Hydrangea macrophylla is a species of flowering plant in the family Hydrangeaceae, native to Japan. It is a deciduous shrub growing to 2 m tall by 2.5 m broad with large heads of pink or blue flowers in summer and autumn. ,
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.
Love the colours of the hydrangea blooms in autumn :)
Thanks for all the lovely comments and faves on my images. I look forward to catching up with everyone this evening :)
The fertile flowers of Hydrangeas can have pink or blue petals. These are both colors, as you can see.
Thanks for looking! Isn't God a great artist?
Thank you, Odile for the lace and spools🌸
Hydrangea are in bloom and we have white and blue blooms. This little bit came from our neighbor's garden, I quite like the bits of pink in the petals.
Bringing out the details of this beautiful Hydrangea wasn't easy facing the sun. The plant was overloaded with blooms and such a lovely sight.
The hydrangea's bloom colour reveals the pH of the soil, but with its distinguishing colours being the reverse of those for litmus paper. The hydrangea is unique among plants in this ability to indicate soil acidity. ... All these strategies tend to turn soil more acidic, and eventually transform the bloom colour to blue. It also means that other plants may not grow happily within the vicinity of Hydrangeas.
