You'd LOVE this one Paul...
I could just sit and watch it all day... ;))))

Lovely - favourite of all time or favourite today :)))))

I've got a deep adoration of this one, Scottish...I wouldn't be without it...

Forget all those minor flirtations! Me and Hortense go back a long way... :)))

Must be special then :))))

LOL!! ;)))
I've had this one in all my gardens, J...I just love it...

Just bought the other one that I've been hankering over, these last years...Hydrangea paniculata...

It's got buds! I can't wait!!

Sounds like it is very soothing for you Karen , plus good memories .

It's hard to explain, Driad...
...it just moves so beautifully...

Oh dear, that makes me seem sad...or on drugs! lol!

But, I'm just hydrangea happy! They should patent it! :)

Hope you and Hortense live happily ever after together,Karen..a lovely one :o)

Thanks Bloomer! ;)))

you're welcome ,Karen..:o)

Have you tried Hydrnagea aspera Villosa Karen? I used to grow that one but it got too large! Dark and broody leaves and lovely pale violet flowers.

No, Karen...I haven't seen that one...
Away to google it! ;)))

Oh, you wicked woman!
I've had to add it to the list...somewhere very near the top!!!

LOL....knew it!

Another visit to Monsieur B... ;)
