Peonies and Hydrangea

Two lovely bouquets from the hospital.  Both arrangements have amazing combination of peonies and hydrangeas — but the top is my favorite bouquet of all time.  The blue flower is a type of hydrangea I’ve never seen before.

    GORGEOUS! I’m a southern transplant currently in the midwest and I just planted my first hydrangea. So far, so good, if it can just make it through the winter…

    So pretty! I’ve never seen hydrangeas like that either. I hope you are relaxing and enjoying every second with that little munchkin. When you get a second, will you email me your address? Thanks, love! xo

    wow – I took some shots of some peonies and iris in my garden last week but the colors weren’t quite as distinct as these – these are gorgeous!

    I’d love to know exactly what kind of hydrangea that is – so unusual! Looks like someone has a great eye for the kind of flowers you would like.

    Oooh, and congrats again!
