Last summer, I photographed hydrangeas at both Brookside Gardens and the National Arboretum. I was amazed at how many colors of flowers were blooming on the same plant. This summer, I photographed a few more types of hydrangeas at Brookside Gardens and in a cemetery outside of Chestertown, MD. Here are some of my favorite photos I’ve taken of hydrangeas.

I noticed that some of my neighbors have hydrangeas with deep purple blossoms – perhaps next year I’ll be able to photograph them . . .
