I planted three new ones last year - only one has flowers and they're not large. Maybe it's the lack of rain here - I simply can't water the whole garden as much as it needs.

Erm, no. You would need a team of volunteers and about five outside taps! :))

We use the stream and a pump - it's allowed, we don't take nearly as much as the legal limit.

Hydrangeas are growing on me now! Love this one. And your garden looks lovely. Good luck with the pond!!!!!

Oh , thanks a lot Lulu! Had a debate with OH today about position of pond, but I seem to have come out on top......so far....he's not all that keen on the idea and to be fair the last pond we had was terrible for pondweed, and that was with one of those fancy UV filtrations systems...I don't think it made a blind bit of difference!

Keep them small and shaded helps alot!!

Erm...yes...I need to reconsider the site for the pond!!

Wow, not often I am impressed with hydrangeas any more. So many new varieties and so many that all look the same, this one is unique though and I love it
