It was probably only for a one time display, and then to be tossed, but I just couldn't bear it as it was so beautiful. There are others in the neighborhood that do reasonably well with some protection and probably some TLC.<BR/><BR/>Hey Zoe, I'm glad hydrangeas are for grandma, as someday I hope to be one:). Watch out for that hemerocallis envy, it's the first symptom of a brewing daylily addiction. Oh if someone only had warned me way back when.cheyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13367266564799325131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7180394453468315080.post-50653025640838728132008-04-15T10:00:00.000-07:002008-04-15T10:00:00.000-07:00Love the blue - so pretty.

I prefer the lacecap hydrangeas in our garden, and they seem hardier too; I have Blue Billows (or is it Blue Bird? can never remember!) but also a number of other hydrangeas. The mopheads other than Endless summer are iffy for flowering, and Endless Summer has been a bit of a dud, too.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107236871193698777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7180394453468315080.post-63445630050593014452008-04-15T04:29:00.000-07:002008-04-15T04:29:00.000-07:00Chey, what pretty Hydrangea pictures.
