In full bloom this weekend in my gardens are the Dooley Mophead Hydrangeas. Named for the former football coach and athletic director at the University of Georgia, it produced a huge showing of blue and slightly pink blooms this year. Apparently, Mr. Dooley, a master gardener, found the hydrangea growing in his backyard. He also has a camellia named for him. They grow to about 3-5 feet in height, require little care and are cold-hardy.
"I don't play golf," he said. "Gardening is my golf."

I love hydrangreas!
Thanks for visiting my blog.
Your hydrangeas are gorgeous...such a lovely mix of soft hues!
Your hydrangeas are beautiful. I only have white and green but I think I will have to add some color in there eventually.
