Hydrangeas
This hydrangea was taken at the Volunteer Park Conservatory in Seattle just this week. A greenhouse plant, of course it’s rushing the season, but it’s a vision of summer flowers to come.
For more flowers around the planet, visit Flowers For Today. Try Macro Flowers Saturday and Macro Monday, and Blue Monday also. Color Carnival has lots of brilliant color creatively seen, too.

That is rushing! My hydrangeas are just little buds right now. These are pretty.

Beautiful, as usual.

This is a perfect macro of this young Hydrangea. What a beautiful color on these fresh petals.
I glad you made it for Macro Flowers, just in time for a beautiful Palm Sunday evening. As we don’t have palms, Palm Sunday is called by us Flower Sunday and it is an important day for flowers (too).
Have a pleasant Holy Week!

Wish I could grow that variety here. Just a tad too cold. Very nice photo!

Beautiful photo, Sara!
It reminds me of my childhood and the beautiful and well kept garden of my mother.
Hope you and your family have a happy easter!

Your photo is lovely and makes me think that Spring and Summer are coming shortly.

Hydrangea always remind me of my grandmothers garden. She was a wonderful gardener but, sadly, I didn’t inherit the gardening gene. I am a murderer or plants.

Nice to see a lovely flower, here in Sweden we have much snow left in the northern part, in south it is an early Spring now.

What a pretty close-up! I do love hydrangeas – especially the blues.

I love blue hydrangeas. This is a wonderful shot, Sara!

That is one of the prettiest blue hydrangeas I have seen in awhile. It is too early here for them. I love them.

Beautiful specimen and a very nice photo. We have two large hydrangea on the side of the house. I’ll keep my eyes open for good photo ops when they’re in bloom.

Stunning photo. Purple (and blue) flowers are my favorite. Just yummy!
Happy MM!
