Sometimes I ache for spring - and as soon as I see my bulbs start to emerge from the ground, I feel like celebrating.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by my Blog. Alot of people do think that hydrangeas are "old lady" flowers, but there are so many varieties nowadays - beautiful white lace-cap ones that are aptly described. Where I grew up on a farm, we had volcanic acidic (red) soil and the hydrangeas we had there were an incredible blue. So soothing to look at. Where I live now, we have alkaline soil, hence the pink of my hydrangeas. Now that it is autumn, the flowers have dried on the plant and look amazing. I should get out and photograph them before I turn into an old lady LOL!!Jocelyn aka JoBear2https://www.blogger.com/profile/05989477127824263685noreply@blogger.com
