Lacecap hydrangeas.
These cool blue beauties grow in my Mama's yard.
I'd love to grow some. But I'm not sure if I have enough shade.
They would probably turn pink in my yard because the soil is so different here.
Have any of you midwest gardeners had success with these?
Gayle I haven't had any luck with these but my neighbor has a load of them on her north side and she literally ignores them. They are gorgeous. Best to keep them against the foundation and out of the horrible wind....smiles..Renee
ReplyDeleteThose are just magnificent!
ReplyDeleteJohn has had his surgery and you can read an update on yesterday's post.
But I would like pink because mine are all blue!! They are pretty!
ReplyDeleteThese are so beautiful!! I have never seen this type of hydrangea before!! So pretty! xo Heather
ReplyDeleteI planted some 10 years ago here in France but I had not enough shade so they are all gone...... And I love those colors and texture. It's a pity .....but I have so many beautiful roses!!!
ReplyDeleteThere beautiful my mum grows them in her garden in Shropshire infact one bush has 3 different colours on it, pink, blue and like a very colour in between them both. dee x
ReplyDeleteThey are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI've never grown hydrangeas. However.. they are certainly on my 'garden wish list!'
Hope today is a great one!

Ah is that what they are called. I've seen them before and thought it was a hydrangea gone wrong.
ReplyDeleteTHose are sooo pretty. I wish I could help on advice, but we don't get such pretty hydrangeas here in Texas.

We have some also on the north side of our house. So very pretty. Love the blue colors.
ReplyDeleteSo very pretty. I may of loss some of mine with the drought.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful..........just like a vintage card! I have never tried to raise these beauties, the conditions are so harsh here. I do know that if you change the acidity to your bed, you will be able to have blue or pink.
ReplyDeleteThose are really pretty! Have a great Labor Day Weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love Lace Cap Hydrangeas . . . beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWe just planted two new hydrangea bushes in the garden. I am anxious for next year and seeing them grow since it is too late in the season. So for now...I am enjoy seeing your beauty!!!
