Pippi21's blog: The hydrangea bushes are blooming

Posted on Jun 12, 2012 6:00 PM

<p>Despite the fact that the hydrangeas got hit by a hard freeze one night and all the leaves were black like it had been in  a fire, they have come back beautifully. Does not seem to be as full as last year but I didn't have Mr. L to prune and feed them back in early March..I cut 4 beautiful blooms and took them by to a nice neighbor who grows the most beautiful hostas as you'd want to see. They are hugh in size..she sprays with Liquid Fence every day or every few days to keep the deer from having a meal off them. She had told me in the Fall that I could have a start off one when she divided them. I didn't feel like I should pick one, let her chose what she wanted to give me. Well, time marched on and I guess we both forgot and she never had Mr. B to divide them so come Easter, this same neighbor brings me my own hosta plant. What a nice surprize! I planted it in a container pot and have it on our breezeway/patio area, so I can remember to spray for Liquid Fence regularly.</p>
