My Hydrangeas!

I am so excited!  My hydrangeas are doing better than ever!  The largest was a cutting I took from my mother-in-laws hydrangea bush over 10 years ago - I brought it home from North Carolina in a soda can filled with water!  The rest are from a garden center, but I'd only get a few flowers every summer.  Last winter, I made up my mind to dig them up this fall if they didn't bloom and replace them with something else that would do better.  No chance of that now!  W. hit them with the lawn fertilizer this year, and I think that little extra shot did just the thing they needed.  So why did I never think of that!
