A spoonful of sugar?

It seems that there have been some issues with blogger and things that used to work fine once upon a time are sort of finicky of late. I made a change to the comment method so I hope that will help a bit. And with this sort of ordinary, run-of-the-mill, technical mumbo jumbo, I hope a pretty picture will help.

This sweet thang is blooming just beside our porch. I look over from my seat on the glider and see the blooms in variations of color.

We planted this hydrangea a couple of years ago and it was small by comparison. This is proof, once again, that if I ignore a plant it will survive. And in many cases, thrive. Soon this plant with all its blossoms will be sitting next to me on the glider asking for an iced tea, a cookie and suggesting that I scoot over a bit so it can have a little more room.

  1. Hi Ginger,

    I love Hydrangea. My Grandmother had her garden filled with them and the splash of color always thrilled me as a little girl. We would sit in the yard and she would tell me the "magic" of how to get all the colors. Of course it was just that, a "story" for a little girl.

    Hugs
