Here's a tip about planting Hydrangeas.....Don't give up on them! I love Hydrangeas and they were the main flowers in my wedding. Several years ago, my mom planted a Hydrangea bush in our yard & for about 3 yrs straight, it never bloomed. We had finally given up & since it was in a prime location, my husband decided to dig it up & replant it elsewhere in our yard. For some reason, he picked a spot on the side of our house where we keep our large trash can behind a white resin screen ( the resin screen looks nicer than looking at a big ugly trash can). Oddly enough, the next year, it started blooming with big, beautiful, blue flowers & it has thrived the last couple of summers. It produces gorgeous Hydrangeas but, the problem is, no one really sees the flowers behind the trash can! I swear people, you can't make this stuff up! The pic in this post is a Hydrangea bouquet on our kitchen table. Unfortunately, the only way anyone gets to enjoy these flowers is by us cutting them off & making bouquets. Oh well, lesson learned!
