Hydrangeas have been abundant and fabulous this year --
alas, the blue blooms have faded by now in our part of the South,
but it's still fun to look at some different recent and past interpretations
of a favorite summer inspiration...
June, 2018, Abundant blues in my garden
June, 2018, Fresh Cuttings in a tiny vase,
chez moi
And, also July, 2018, some Late Cuttings,
