I love hydrangeas ❀️ I have a few, but none the size of dinner plates like yours!

Oh that's so luxe. Nice job with the pH (?) variation too.

Stunning! I know from experience these are not easy to grow! Tried various locations but was always too sunny or too shady. And I was never great at keeping them as well watered as they need. I’ll just admire other people’s skills!

morning sun, afternoon shade

and lots of high mineral fertilizer, don't cut back in autumn, cut in early spring when they have buds
