Well they do, and now I have 3 of them, that's a good start for now.

At the end of the season the blooms get a thick leathery texture and you know they are good for drying. Just pick them and put them in a vase without water and they gradually dry out. You just have to use the end of seaon blooms though.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10818795902981871173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3903542526482295642.post-39325297902800337472012-07-18T06:43:06.072-07:002012-07-18T06:43:06.072-07:00Blue Hydrangeas with a hint of purple are my favor...Blue Hydrangeas with a hint of purple are my favorite.

I had gorgeous hyd. in Virginia and tried in Florida...and now again in Colombia to grow them...but alas...they really want that cold weather spell. I think it depends on the soil as to what color the blooms are. Mine changed from year to year.bohemiannie! arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04323742149467254627noreply@blogger.com
