Lovely Lacecap

This Hydrangea macrophylla was a cutting from Frances' garden in Atkinson NC.
She did not know the name of it but I suspect 'Blue Wave' 
which was popular at the time. It is so blue at the peak of bloom
it almost makes your teeth ache!

Lacecap Hydrangea growing in the shade of the oak tree

Cutting from the original cutting 2 years ago

The earth is very acidic here
soil test a few years ago ph 4.5
