Hydrangeas Changing Color

Football, fall, and pine straw: the things I can rely on when September rolls around. Also, my pretty blue hydrangeas bud one last time and bloom their last hues for the year.

I’m really glad that the ones in the back yard are growing so well. It’s pretty much one of the very few things back there that are still green, considering how hard I’ve been working on adding fill dirt and leveling things out!

Not all of them are growing in blue, however. Some of the lower buds have begun to turn to their fall coloring, and I am LOVING it.

Summer has been kind of hard on my other plants this year, so it’s nice to see one thing still happy and healthy. I do think I’m going to have to trim this one back this year, though once the flowers are all finished blooming (for more tips on growing healthy hydrangeas, see this post).

Still, there are signs of additional buds still left, so I’m looking forward to getting one last show.

Is anything blooming in your yard?
