This is the most beautiful hydrangea I've seen all year. It is truly amazing how God makes these, just for us to enjoy. I love drying the blooms for christmas tree decorations, the pinks are the best colors for drying. As always I've my visit.'

I have tried every variety I can think of and can't get these to grow for me. What a treat to see how beautiful yours are. Thanks for sharing.
I think you've got the most gorgeous hydrangea ever! I've got 2 in pots and LOVE them.
Mine are just thinking about budding. I go out every morning and peek into their tight little leaves to look for buds! Yeah, I know I should get a life, but why??

Beautiful colours! Sal ;-)
Hi Becky,
I love those hydrangeas. I tried some a couple of years ago but they didn't make it. They must not like our soil here in Ohio. Yours are gorgeous. Cut a bouquet for me please. How is Doogs?? Jackson is loving the nice weather. He always wants to be outside.
Hugs,

Oh I love these hydrangeas.. they remind me of our holiday cottage in Cornwall when I was a wee lass.. The hydrangeas in Cornwall were blue mostly due to the acid soil..
They make fabulous dried flower arrangements..
Sweet Dreams Becky

P.s Henny Penny is very much part of the family now.. even has her own place setting at the table!
She sends her love..
Your hydrangea bush is stunning! I can't wait for mine to be in full bloom..I have one :)
I hope you are having a wonderful day.

I love hydrangeas. Mine is blue and it is just starting to turn blue today. I love the way the blossoms start put almost green and then begin to color around the edges. I'll be showing a photo of it when it reaches it's peak.
Happy gardening.Rhondi
Your hydrangea's look beautiful! Come on..are these this year's pix? Mind are about three weeks behind yours....they got a bad case of the chilblains in that freeze we had..but have rallied. Thanks for sharing my 2nd favorite flower too...well my 2nd favorite June/July flower ;o).
Those are beautiful!! :)
Oh that is gorgeous! I have tried growing hydrangeas and they have not survived my sandy soil. Guess I'll just have to enjoy yours:>)
Oh, Becky! What have you done?! Don't you know that hydrangeas are sweety's favorite in the whole wide world shrub? If he sees these pictures he's going to make me drive him over in the middle of the night and help him steal it right out of your yard! If you hear a noice at night, just roll over and pretend everything is fine!
I meant "noise". What the heck is a noice?
I too am a fan of hydrangeas, still waiting for our white ones to bloom. Your pink one is absolutely gorgeous wonderful photos!
The Hydrangea is my favorite plant..... I just planted two more in my yard.... Your is just beautiful!!!!!!!!!!! I love to dry them and use them around my house.......Thanks for sharing
Hydrangea are magnificent, aren't they? I hope to have some large, billowing ones on the side of my home one day. For now, still saving up money for a backhoe and crew to come in a re-do my uneven yard. Yours have huge flower heads~ do you feed them anything special?
miles of smiles,
Darly

Those are really gorgeous! For some reason, the woman who lived here before did not plant any hydrangeas and I love them! I think I may have to plant some myself.
Hydrangeas are my favorite. Thanks for sharing your beauties!!
Have a great weekend,
Rosemary
Oh they are so beautiful, and over such a long period of time -- I love the buds, and the blooms. Do you dry them?
