My Costco Hydrangeas are not my first attempt at growing hydrangeas. At the end of May of last year I found these beautiful Shooting Star Hydrangeas at Kroger. I fell in love with them immediately even though every grain in my body told me not to buy a grocery plant. I had already been down that road and it had not ended well. I couldn't resist them though so I brought two home. They were happy little plants. I kept them alive and flowering for almost two whole months. I even had a neighbor friend care for them while we went on vacation. I was quite pleased with myself because I have never been able to keep a plant alive. When we got back I was informed that they took a turn for the worst. They didn't like being in a different environment and let's just say by the end of it I had to try and save my beloved Shooting Stars. |
No, but I have several other varieties. Glad to see yours doing so well.
ReplyDeleteA pretty plant. I have never hear of that sort of hydrangea . I must look for it. Yours looks so healthy and happy.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. Happy Fall.!
We do not have those in our area in the midwest that I know of anyway. I know hydrangea's are very picky about where they grow and the temps they can endure. I am glad to see the shooting stars will be ok in your hot summers. I am hoping to plant some where we took down a tree in the spring. We are bracing for winter coming soon. Have a great new week.
