In the last year my Mom cut and dried over 100 hydrangea flowers from the garden and decorated this years Christmas tree with them. It’s quite a sight.

This Hydrangea was a purple-blue-pink combo when I bought her some years ago, but she's gone pink on me now.
Hydrangea macrophylla
Hydrangea macrophylla is a species of Hydrangea native to Japan. Common names include Bigleaf Hydrangea, French Hydrangea, Lacecap Hydrangea, Mophead Hydrangea, Penny Mac and Hortensia. It is widely cultivated in many parts of the world in many climates.
Hydrangea macrophylla blossoms can be either pink, blue, or purple shades.
Hydrangeas are deciduous shrubs or small trees. They are grown for their beautiful domed or flattened flowers which appear in mid-summer for a month.
The flowers normally consist of a mass of fertile flowers surrounded by infertile flowers which give the hydrangea its large flower heads. Some varieties however have almost all sterile flowers.
Hydrangea arborescens and quercifolia are natives of North America, Hydrangea serratifolia is native to South America. The remainder of hydrangeas are natives East Asia.

My favorites:
Fading hydrangea, on their way out, (kind of like summertime) but still pretty, sitting on an old weathered table in the yard at my sister's vacation house.
Long day today ... 3 hour drive to soccer, soccer game with too much sun and wind (3-0 win, YEY!), then back to college to take my daughter to dinner, then to Walmart to buy YET MORE STUFF to shove into her dorm room, then drive home. Tomorrow we do it again. I'm going to get really sick of sitting in the car. Now...wishing I had put sunscreen on my face and not just on my arms, I am going to bed and hoping my face won't still be BRIGHT RED in the morning. (what a dope I am!)
