Thank you for posting, I love to see hydrangea pics from others! The weather over here has been terrible for them the past week, temps are over 100F and very dry. I have to water some of them every day.

Thanks all...

Shame about yours pixi...I'll have a google later and see if I can find out any info for you...
The reason we chose to move the Hydrangeas back into semi-shade, Karen was the crisping, The Sun in this back Garden can be relentless...
Hi Rk ...this is the second Hydrangea, slightly different to the first one, I just love the petal formation on this, and glad I captured the shot at this time...
The hot sun is their enemy...we've had temperatures as high recently, but thankfully we are on our third day of Rain...

Mine is in semi-shade, Sue...but also in a pot. I like to water the pots with a watering can, so I know what they're getting...but, OH (bless 'im) likes to fire the hose at them so hard that the earth jumps out!!

Seems he missed that pot altogether, lol! Shame, cos it's right by the tap! lol!!!

Thanks Sue..we did look into it but there's seems no reason why it shouldnt flower. It gets a little sun early morning and later in the afternoon..the soil is clayish..used to get waterlogged until Rick put in a drainage pipe. I was thinking of moving it into the front garden maybe. i dont know. :)

lol Karen...bless his little heart...:)))

Hi Pixi...maybe that's the answer...you can only try...I have got a tendancy to move my plants around, if they don't seem to be too content where they are...good luck...I'll still look for you tho...
