Hydrangeas

The hydrangeas seem to be blooming early this year because of the mild winter.   I wanted to share with you the different colors in my yard.

This picture is my daughter's "Lacecap" hydrangea.  It is so beautiful!  My mother had those when I was growing up.  Did you know that you can bend a branch of the hydrangea bush (still attached) to the ground, put a brick on it and in six or eight months it will root and you can transplant it? The pink bush in the picture above was rooted from my sister's bush.

This lichen is growing in my yard also.  Isn't it pretty?  It looks like a big flower.
