There are so many varieties and colours of hydrangeas and I love them all! This white beauty with the purple buds was on a bush beside a tool store on an overcast windy day, sheltered by the wall and hidden in the foliage. In the brief still moments I took this photo to share with you all today. The details in it are delicious particularly where you can zoom in and see what appears to be a mini flower growing on one of the petals! Isn’t it lovely when tiny surprises, often in the brief still moments in our lives give us such pleasure? I hope your day holds such good surprises, large or small!

When I looked closely at that little interloper on the petal, the little surprise turned into a big surprise. It appears to me to be a completely different plant? Not at all like the host plant. What a delight! The variance of nature never ceases to amaze. Another great find, Ellie, and a beautiful capture. Oh, and I agree, all hydrangeas are beautiful.
I agree, it’s quite astonishing to see that little entity sitting there! I was amazed. I know most people won’t see it as it’s too small for phone viewing and that’s how most look at things these days…. But I’m so glad you saw it. Have a great day!
Wonderful
Thanks Françoise!
It is beautiful Ellie. Love the texture on the leaves plus on the petals. And the little blossoms that are popping out. Thanks again
I’m glad you see it, Linda! Thanks for the comment.
