I'm surprised how well hydraneas have done this year, their blooms seem to be never ending. I've had one in a container for a few years but it wasn't very happy so I've finally bit the bullet and planted it out this year, I'm hoping it will be happier and put on a better show next year.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184901344095001216.post-80110599488284124722015-11-29T18:29:57.137+00:002015-11-29T18:29:57.137+00:00Hey Jo,
