Our Hydrangea macrophylla Mariesii Variegata is still growing and hasn't reached its full potential. It still puts out a few nice blooms.

A nice closeup of Cityline Paris shows how vivid the color is on this hydrangea.
Our Hydrangea paniculata Pinky Winky finally bloomed well this season. Its still not as spectacular it can be but its a start. As the blooms mature and open, the base turns pink and ultimately looks like this (click here).
A nice two toned Hydrangea Macrophylla Penny Mac.

I love it; especially the two-toned one. I wish I could sit in your garden and work all day.
ReplyDeleteYou could but at this time of year you would need to bring a mosquito net!
DeleteLove the 2-tone one! How peculiar!
ReplyDeleteSaw some at UCD the other day, and wonder if the bush is hydrangea, this page confirmed my confusion. Tks, Mc!
It is peculiar. I moved an entire bed of Penny Mac hydrangeas to a new bed I created that runs against the fence and a cobblestone patio. Next year the whole row should be covered in blooms. I didn't treat the soil so I'm hoping for a mix of colors.
