Garden Inspiration: Hydrangeas

Hydrangea macrophylla 'Buttons and Bows'  

Hydrangeas are my favorite flower, and they are currently blooming in my neighborhood. Here are a few gorgeous options if you are thinking about adding hydrangeas to your garden. Most varieties prefer a shady or partially sunny spot.

Hydrangea macrophylla 'Rio'

Hydrangea macrophylla 'Lanarth White'

Hydrangea macrophylla 'Fasan'

Hydrangea macrophylla 'Mariesii'

Hydrangea macrophylla 'Venice Raven' 

This variety and the three lacecap hydrangeas above it vary in color from pink to purple, depending on the ph of the soil.

Hydrangea paniculata 'Limelight'

Panicule hydrangeas, such as Limelight, will tolerate full sun.

Hope these gorgeous plants have inspired you to plant some hydrangeas!
