Hydrangea flowers are produced from early spring to late autumn; they grow in flowerheads (corymbs or panicles) at the ends of the stems. In many species, the flowerheads contain two types of flowers, small fertile flowers in the middle of the flowerhead, and large, sterile bract-like flowers in a ring around the edge of each flowerhead.
I love hydrangeas... they're so beautiful and fussy. These are Lace Cap hydrangeas, not always my favorites, but they were so pretty here.
