A wonderful lacecap Hydrangea.

I love both the lacecap Hydrangeas and the mopheads equally. Fair enough the mopheads do fall down in the rain but thats a small matter of little significance. This un-named Hydrangea is yet another that has flowered wonderfully well this year and the flowers are divine.

I love that delicate shade. Do you propagate any of your hydrangeas, Sean??

I love all hydrangeas. The lacecaps look so elegant and ladylike. But I must admit I tend to prefer the mopheads.

Thanks Ladies. As far as progagating goes, AitAlainn, if a bit breaks off when I'm cutting the grass, I will stick it in the ground somewhere else and I've got a few to come along that way and now they are fine plants. I'm not very cultured, am I?

Between dogs and footballs I dont think I would have any success using that method of propogating in my garden!

I love Hydrangeas too and that is a lovely one - beautiful flowers, lovely colour, nice rounded shape.

Lidl had them on sale today but missed them!

Nuala, some of my cuttings are turning yellow!!! Still hope to get few  - fingers crossed.

I still haven't got a chance to repot the cuttings that have grown aerial roots - this weekend, maybe??
