Blushing Bride Hydrangea
I was flipping through some photos from last May and stumbled upon this one: a pretty little bloom from one of our Blushing Bride Hydrangeas.
We planted three bushes in 2008 and have enjoyed their gorgeous blooms for the last three years. Sadly, two of the hydrangea plants mysteriously died. We kept waiting and waiting for them to bud this spring, but finally realized they didn’t make it through the winter. In the past they’ve always seemed like pretty hardy plants, I am not sure what happened.
So now we have just one lone bush. It has lots of bright green leaves, but no blooms yet. I’d really love to know why the other two died. If anyone has a green thumb, I’d love your advice and opinions.

I’m so thrilled about these bottles. While the price was by no means a “steal”, I think they are worth every penny. I guess when you wait long enough for something, it just makes the find that much more exciting. Now for the hard part – deciding where to display them. They look beautiful almost anywhere I put them!
