Hydrangeas in the garden. It's year two for the the limelight hydrangea, and year three or four for the pink one. This turned out to be a good year of growth for both.

Hydrangea (/haɪˈdreɪndʒ(i)ə/; common names 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, and others lianas reaching up to 30 m (98 ft) by climbing up trees. They can be either deciduous or evergreen, though the widely cultivated temperate species are all deciduous.
Having been introduced to the Azores, H. macrophylla is now very common, particularly on Faial, which is known as the "blue island" due to the vast number of hydrangeas present on the island.
Species in the related genus Schizophragma, also in Hydrangeaceae, are also often known as hydrangeas. Schizophragma hydrangeoides and Hydrangea petiolaris are both commonly known as climbing hydrangeas.
There are two flower arrangements in hydrangeas. Mophead flowers are large round flowerheads resembling pom-poms or, as the name implies, the head of a mop. In contrast, lacecap flowers bear round, flat flowerheads with a center core of subdued, fertile flowers surrounded by outer rings of showy, sterile flowers. The flowers of some rhododendrons can appear similar to those of some hydrangeas, but Rhododendron (including azalea) is in a different order.

Summer Hydrangea (Pee Gee). Last year a Doe and her fawn walked up to this plant and lovingly consummed 5 of the flower heads. She would bite them off under the flower, look at me with the flower in her mouth and then consume it like a tree shreader.

アジサイ
Now, hydrangea blossoms around there of Fuji 5 lakes.
This region blooms at this time
because the temperature is about 5-10℃ lower than surroundings.

Hydrangea serrata 'Hime gaku'
Arbusto giapponese alto circa un metro, con infiorescenze di dimensioni ridotte, ma dai colori molto accesi, che vanno dall’azzurro intenso al rosa deciso. Tre, più raramente quattro, è il numero dei sepali del singolo fiorellino sterile. Considerata la piccola dimensione dei fiori, è consigliata una esposizione protetta dal sole.
