Summer Garden

I know, it's not really summer yet, but the weather is so beautiful, the hydrangeas are blooming, the kids are out of school today and it feels like summer to me!





They make a lovely arrangement for inside, too!





They just make me feel happy!  Now, off to the pool!!

Your hydrangeas are beautiful! Have you ever tried to make a hydrangea more blue? I have heard that it can be done by changing the pH of the soil, but have never tried it, and wondered if you had!

Thanks, Claudia! I actually haven't done that. I'm a novice gardener. I'm just so excited to have them at all, I'll take whatever color I can get! But, I'm hoping to learn more and get better at this, so who knows, maybe I'll have blue-er ones before you know it!! You need to bring the kiddos up and see them and stay for a swim and lunch! I'd love to catch up!
