Today's Flowers #3

Today’s flower is a Hydrangea. I took this at the walking park in Lenoir, NC about three weeks ago.

Hydrangea are such stunning flowers. I like the way bits of light are hitting the blue to create subtle variations of value.

I wish I could grow this kind of hydrangea in my gardens! I love them. They turn blue if the soil is acidic and pink if its alkaline. I think that’s amazing!

Beautiful blue Hydrangea and words of wisdom.

Hydrangeas spiral me back to the late 50s when my Grandmother moved to a terrace over-looking Bondi Beach and stretching the full length of her side walkway were alternating pink and blue Hydrangeas. They are in full bloom in December in Sydney and one spray is sufficient to fill a vase.

I like Hydrangeas (Hortensia). Good shot.

Buquet are beautiful blue, Hortências here call them, and only born in places of cold weather. Great contribution.

Our hydreangeas are all but gone. Your photo is so clear and bright. I love your capture of one of my favorite flowers.

Very pretty! These always remind of of my baby-sitter’s yard when I was a kid. She had huge bushes that lined the front of her house.
