    These get bigger every year!

    My birds are near the front door and the rest of the room to the left is my small sewing room.

    No, I am such a bland person! With all the hard rain we have had, they don't look too good anymore - so glad pictures were taken while they weren't beaten down.

    Beautiful!
    I used to by my MIL hydrangeas every year for her birthday. Then they sold the house they were living in and moved to a smaller house. She left ALL the plants there. Boy, was I mad!!

    I have the blue ones in my yard and have done some reading on them. As I understand it the white ones won't change to another color. They are a different kind (I think that is what they said). they need aluminum in their fertilization to change the colors, but it isn't easy to find.
