Last year, my hydrangeas didn’t bloom. That was disheartening for a new gardener—wondering what I did or didn’t do. I shared this with you and received suggestions on what to do differently. I followed your advice and made the necessary changes.
As spring began unfolding this year, I watched the hydrangeas like a hawk. When the first flower heads appeared, relief washed over me—affirmation that my attention to their care at the start of the season was worthwhile.
And now, for your viewing pleasure, here are the first set of hydrangeas that skipped blooming last season. Enjoy!









Thanks to Cee for hosting the Flower of the Day prompt.
