Photo Wednesday 8: hydrangeas at home

This is our front yard.  “Yard” is a euphemism: this gorgeous array of flowers (it’s 3 bushes) takes up about half of the space.  I adore hydrangeas and always have, mostly for their color.  They were the main flower in our wedding decor (with some yellow roses) which is part of my sentimental attachment.  But I have only realized lately that part of the reason I love these flowers so much is that they are the exact same color as the sky at its most saturated, outrageous blue.

  1. I love how hydrangeas just last and last and last. They’re fresh and bright at the beginning, their colors mellow, and even when dried they have a lot of beauty. I love that kind of staying power.

  2. Gorgeous. I just bought a bouquet of hydraganas (white and blue) to put next to our bed. Love them! Happy 4th.
