I never know quite what my hydrangeas are going to look like from year to year.
It's hard to believe that these are all on the same bush.
Pale pink nestles against soft blues, while further up the bush are blooms of a lilac shade.
This is their best time of year, just as they come into flower. Later in the season they will darken.
With garden centres closed I had to use what I could find for my big pots this year.
I managed to source some pretty mauve petunias from Sarah Raven, and mixed with my white geraniums (now in their 6th year)
they look pretty and delicate. A friend brought me some purple verbena to mix with them.
Just a quick look at dahlia Waltzing Matilda.
I have a feeling that at night she drifts round the garden in waltz time, swishing her fiery petals.
Do you think so?

Yes! I love seeing what's in bloom in your garden, Barbara. Your hydrangea are beautiful! The color on the dahlia is stunning!
I can see that too! :)
Love the multi-colors in your hydrangea! And you did a lovely job with your large pots!
Love your mixed color hydrangea - I hope to grow some like that along my back fence once we get the bed dug over - now the ivy has been stripped.
Pretty petunias, and the verbena is perfect with them. I cannot overwinter geraniums here, have to buy new plants every spring.
I love hydrangeas too and have one like yours and a white Snowball hydrangea. I bought the food for the pink hydrangea that helps produce blue flowers and it works.
The mixed color hydrangea bush is gorgeous! And the other flowers are very pretty also.
Blessings, Linda
The beautiful array of colour of the hydrangea is a delight and I love the thought of the waltzing Matilda dancing around the garden at night.
So beautiful. Now I'm singing Waltzing Matilda!!
Beautiful flowers.
I'm making a note of the azaela's name.
Your Hydrangeas are so lovely with the different colours.
I have a Hydrangea "Endless Summer" which is supposed to be like that but for some reason this year has only pink blooms. They are very pretty but I had hoped for some blue ones as well.
Waltzing Matilda definitely secretly dances when everyone has gone to bed, swishing her fiery petals!
Beautiful flowers. I'm hoping my hydrangeas bloom lovely this year, they are in bud at the moment.
How lucky you are, to be able to grow these beautiful flowers!
We put some in, years ago. Their blooms were magnificent the first year. Second year, not so much. Third year and on and on, nothing. Just lots of leaves.
My husband has read up on them, and tried everything. Never has anything worked. -sigh-
So, lucky you!!!
Happy 4th of July!
Yes I do think so!! Beautiful flowers to enjoy, so nice.
What a delight to have a hydrangea that is both pink and blue! Amazing! Your dahlias are gorgeous too, always so wonderful to enjoy such beautiful blooms! Many blessings to you :)
Barbara, oh I love hydrangeas. My husband has promised to plant some for me next spring. I love all the colors and what a wonderful surprise to discover what color they might be! xo
You drew a lovely picture in my mind . . . yes I choose to think that you are right. Maybe you should wake in the night and go out in the garden and dance with them. If I were there I would join you :) Wouldn't we be a sight, LOL
Oh Barbara, your hydrangea's are beautiful. I fell in love with them when we visited the UK and the only way I can get the big beautiful blooms that you get is to plant them in pots.
I got your letter early this week and will send you an answer once the sons are both back in their respective homes. I have visiting to do.
God bless.
