Seasonal Record

2026 I purchased 3 more hydrangeaas this year 1 Strawberry and Cream Penical and 2 machrophilia that live in tall planters I have in the front. The Strawberry has not gotten enought water to be happy this year but is still alive. The two in planters were heavily scortched and I have some research and work to do with each of them to really make them shine.

2025 Purchaded my first 3 hydrangeas. Little Limelight Punch.
