Tina, your hydrangeas look lovely! They say "I'm from the South", don't they? My french ones are on the wane here in Georgia but my white lace caps are still going strong. Thanks for sharing.

Tina I just dried mine and put them in my
tulip leary on my table. I put mine in a
blue mason jar with a small amount of water and put them under the fan in my sewing room for 2 weeks,that way they dried with
some color still in them. You have to cut
them with some color still there. I hope
this helps some of your readers. Love your
photos of your hydrangeas they are beautiful. ":O)
Like those who have mentioned, I would love to dry my hydrangeas, would you let us know how? Mine are now stating to bloom. Yours look beautiful in that basket, can't wait to see your wreath.
Beautiful hydrangeas they are one of my favorite flowers and my bush is just loaded this year many different colors...I always dry them also thanks for sharing yours!
Hi Tina,
In CA we usually harvest the hydrangeas in the fall to dry. Good luck! MIne are soooooo full of blooms this year I hope to have a big harvest in October to dry. Jan
I love hydrangeas. I can't wait to see how your wreath turns out. I dried some blossoms last year and mine retained a lot of the color. I got lucky. Love & blessings from NC!
They are sooo pretty...one of my favorite flowers. I love your display, I like to let them sit in a container and slowly dry out, they are sweet summer reminders when the cooler weather comes around. Have a nice weekend.

So pretty, Tina. Four of my hydrangea bushes are blooming for the first time in years. I want to cut those blooms but can't bring myself to do it.
