Hydrangea (common names Hydrangea and Hortensia) is a genus of about 70-75 species of flowering plants native to southern and eastern Asia (China, Korea, Japan, the Himalayas, and Indonesia) and North and South America. By far the greatest species diversity is in eastern Asia, notably China, Korea, and Japan. Most are shrubs 1-3 m tall, but some are small trees, and others lianas 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.
Hydrangeas are popular ornamental plants, grown for their large flowerheads, with Hydrangea macrophylla being by far the most widely grown with over 600 named cultivars, many selected to have only large sterile flowers in the flowerheads. Some are best pruned on an annual basis when the new leaf buds begin to appear. If not pruned regularly, the bush will become very 'leggy', growing upwards until the weight of the stems is greater than their strength, at which point the stems will sag down to the ground and possibly break. Other species only flower on 'old wood'. Thus new wood resulting from pruning will not produce flowers until the following season.
Hydrangea L. è un genere di piante della famiglia delle Hydrangeaceae, originarie della Cina e del Giappone, comunemente note come ortensie.
Il genere comprende diverse specie di piante legnose arbustive originarie e molto diffuse nelle regioni orientali dell'Asia e dell'Himalaya.
La particolarità di questa pianta sono i fiori, riuniti in infiorescenze più o meno sferiche, dette corimbi o pannocchie, che portano fiori per lo più sterili, soprattutto quelli esterni, per cui sono sostituiti dai sepali, grandi e petaliformi, mentre le altre parti fiorali sono abortite.
La specie Hydrangea macrophilla comprende numerose varietà con grosse infiorescenze globose bianche, rosa, rosse o azzurre, utilizzate per la produzione in vaso o nei giardini

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.

what I love about the (tesselated) hydrangeas is that they are so very versatile. you can create a lot of pretty different optical effects.
I first noticed this when georigami put his hydrangeas on flickr. his first 3-layered version looks very different from his later 4-layered one.
his pictures were when I first got interested in this model. well, his and the ones by robson renê albuquerque and dassa.
anyway, I wanted to try differently layered hydrangeas on the same sheet of paper. when I had completed the first iteration of my model I was very happy with it (that's the one on the left). (so very happy in fact that I stared at it rapt for what felt like one hour :-D )
I then decided to do one more iteration. the effect was not what I had expected though. I actually think I prefer the earlier version. ah well, too late now...
I have never paid attantion to hydrangea's stems - have you?
I thought all of their stems were just green, but this one is red (or burgundy). I was kind of surprised.
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.

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 by climbing up trees. They can be either deciduous or evergreen, though the widely cultivated temperate species are all deciduous.
