Hydrangea 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

Hydrangea blossoms can vary from pink to blue, depending on the amount of aluminum in the soil. (Alcoa may want to mine here.)
The blossoms of Hydrangeas are normally globes of flowers, but these are a variety that blooms in flat-topped bunches.
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!)

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.
