Last week, I went to an estate sale. The house had a beautiful view of Huntsville. The inside contents were less impressive. My thrifting buddy held up a vase and said that my peonies and hydrangeas would look great in the vase, knowing that I love all things pink. The vase had a wide enough mouth on it and it costs $5.00, so I put it in my pile of treasures to purchase.
I was pleasantly surprised when I found out how much the vase cost online. I would say that it was worth the money.
Since I have so many blooms out on my bushes, I cut multiple blooms this morning, tied them together and hung them upside down. I will give you an update later to tell you how well they dried.
O
It has been a glorious year for hydrangeas. There were 2 things I did differently this year. I did not cut them back severely as in the past. I also took my old coffee grounds and filled an empty milk gallon container with the grounds and water and fed the plants since last fall. I have to believe that that improved the color variation.
