This morning in my garden I was surprised to see for the first time this spectacular colour of an hydrangea really violet ! No saturation added !
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?
Hydrangea, commonly named the hortensia, is a genus of more than 75 species of flowering plants native to Asia and the Americas. By far the greatest species diversity is in eastern Asia, notably China, Korea, and Japan.

These hydrangeas were well past their prime, but I've never seen such unusually coloured ones, and never have I seen them multicoloured like these were. They were quite amazing in the late afternoon sunlight @ Mt Macedon.
Thanks everyone for your kind messages, I managed to enjoy some time out with the FFF+ gang on Saturday and am doing very short processing sessions! Hopefully I can keep up with your lovely images, even if its only hitting the fav button.
Hydrangea, common names hydrangea or hortensia is a genus of 70–75 species of flowering plants native to Asia and the Americas. It belongs to the Hydrangeaceae family. ‘Hydrangea’ is derived from Greek and means ‘water vessel’, which is in reference to the shape of its seed capsules. By far the greatest species diversity is in eastern Asia, notably Korea, China, and Japan. Most are shrubs 1 to 3 meters tall, but some are small trees, and others reaching up to 30 m by climbing up trees. They can be either deciduous or evergreen, though the widely cultivated temperate species are all deciduous. Flowers are produced from early spring to late autumn; they grow in flowerheads most often at the ends of the stems. 35011
