Description This has got to be the world's fullest hydrangea bush ever.I have never seen so many blooms on a single plant. My mother gave this plant to my grandmother some years back when it was only a singly hydrangea bloom in a tiny window flower box. My grandmother decided to plant it because she doesn't like window plants and now that single bloom is a hydrangea bush with a twenty square foot base that stands at a five and a half foot height. To sum it up, this thing is freak'n huge! This shot is of my favorite bloom on the entire bush. So with that said, I give you Blue Hydrangea

That's a big-ass bush, my friend. As they say, from little acorns do mighty oaks grow. Or hydrangeas in this case . That sky blue goes really well with the dark greens and black.

lol i know right! thanks. the light was a bit of a pain to work around (the sun wanted to hit the lens of my camera and the wind wasn't on my side)
thanks

thats so cool…i have one friend from Okinawa, but i don't think he will be moving back home (he is in the states now for school)
i'm still stuck on the written part of it, but i'm starting to pick up on words and phrases
i need to find someone who knows the language to go with me and my buddy mikey

I love hydrangeas, and I love the work you have done bringing this one into such beautiful focus.
Keep up the great work ^_^

me too
lol the focus was tricky with these, my camera wanted to focus on the leaves, so i had to half click and move the camera to make the focus on the flowers…it took a few tries to get it right, but i was very happy with the results
thank you and i def will try
