Spotlight on...........Hydrangea!


How is is that we have not introduced this amazing flower to you yet?!!!


The hydrangea is our number one pick for all our designs. Hydrangeas are big beautiful perennials that produce flowers in varoius colors and textures. They range from the stunning white "Annabelle" Aborescens to the lush and vibrant Mophead Macrophylla. Other varieties include Lacecap, Oakleaf and Pee Gee. Each variety is known for it's own unique features. Some have small delicate flat florets while others have large full flowers. Some plants produce flowers that are vibrant in color, while others are specific only to white. The hydrangea plant is most known for its color variations. Growers can control the color by adjusting the ph level of the soil in which the plant is grown. Some plants even change tones just from replanting and adjusting to their new environment. Just when you thought it could not get any more beautiful, the plant ages seasonally turning flowers into the most amazing deep toned jewels!

Just look at the pictures and you will see how this magnificent flower impacts our designs. It truely is one of nature's most impressive presents!
