Blue Hydrangeas

Blue Hydrangeas, 8X10, Oil

Hydrangea blooms make their debut.

My gardening assistant this morning, Annabelle.

Every year I buy a little hydrangea plant from the grocery store and stick it in the ground and think positive thoughts about it. After 3 years, one of these thirsty little shrubs has finally produced flowers! They're tiny, but the blossoms are just starting to open.

Your hydrangea are beautiful, both the plant and the oil. We give Annabelle the title of official gardening pug. Yay, Annabelle!

Nancy,

When I first saw the hydrangea painting, I thought it was from the container in the guest bedroom you stayed in : )

Those plants can be a bugger about reblooming. I think there's a couple coming out on my plants too, but not many. Nothing like when I first bought them, that's for sure!
