BLUE HYDRANGEA'S TO SHARE
Three years ago we planted miniature hydrangea bushes to replace my knockout roses that died in several days of '0' degrees weather. They say in the mountains it takes three years for a plant to really be at it's best. Well I am a believer after seeing my hydrangeas bloom like crazy this year.
They take my breath away.
The front of our home in the mountains. The double doors open up to the bottom level of our home which is just a crawl space. We chose not to have a basement. We rarely use our lower deck but I am on the lookout for some deck furniture to decorate this space.
The hydrangea bushes in front of the lower deck are loaded with blooms.
The upper deck is the main level of our home and our view is a lovely mountain vista.
Our view is my header photo.
I am in love with the beauty of these flowers this year.
Happy Blue Monday
Blessings and love,
JEANNE

Good things come to those who wait and your hydrangeas were worth the wait.

Love your home and surrounding area. I think the lower deck looks pretty with the blue doors and beautiful flowers. I had my first hydrangea plant this year and it was blue. Yours are so bright and lovely. We are still going through a heat wave, so mine probably will burn up. Take time out and enjoy your flowers.

What a beautiful place to live and you are right! Those hydrangeas do take your breath away. Perfect in front of your lovely home.

My, our lower deck loves blue:) Have a great time dressing it up more (although the many hydrangea would be enough for me:) )

Oh your backyard looks awesome. I love those flowers. My roses did not fair to well this year and neither did my hydrangeas. Have a fun week!

Jeanne, blue hydrangeas. Gorgeous. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Jeanne,
How lovely! One of my favourite flowers. You must have exactly the right soil type there :-)
Have a great week,
Sarah

I love your house, everything about it. Your crawl space front door is beautiful. I could see a couple of swings or hammocks, maybe some comfy outdoor couches or chairs. Great place to read and relax in the early fall and spring season. The flower colors are so vivid. Mine are hot pink. Love how these bunches of flowers last long and look so beautiful.

My mum has hydrangeas in her garden but in many other colours too such as white, pink and purple.
