This is my lace-cap hydrangea, which is in front of my porch. I just don't know what to call this color. Any ideas?
Look at these little bud clusters! Sorry they are a little blurry. They look like little blueberries!
The process of bloom is amazing to watch. Each little ball becomes a petal.
In this picture the little balls look like blue cauliflowers.
This gives an idea of just how large this bush is.
Buds just beginning to form.
They were greenish-colored at first.
No wonder I was worried. Look how pitiful!
The little leaves are barely showing. Never did I dream that this lovely shrub would produce such gorgeous blossoms and foliage. I should learn to trust Mother Nature.
I'm thinking periwinkle blue.
