Apparently, if you baby them. Cindy cleaned a house today that had one – on the back patio – on stilts in the mountains away from wild animals in the shade. Now that is getting pretty homesick for the Northwest, I think.

I got hot! So I started processing photographs. Vince and I went on a photo shoot to Goldwater Lake, and I shot my first photos in camera raw. So I had a chance to start playing. Once I started, I couldn’t stop. The next think I knew the kitties wanted food, and then it was time to go play pickleball, then go to church, then have Cindy over for lunch. You might guess that I didn’t do too well at much of any of it, and I’ve been super grumpy all day. I collapsed at about 2:00 and took a two or three hour nap this afternoon.

That’s a beauty, Cee, but I am confused. When hydrangeas are pink, it means the soil is alkaline. When they turn blue, it’s because the soil is acidic. So how to explain purple?! Can soil be both acidic and alkaline? Our hydrangeas are in “neutral” soil, I guess – they are white!

You are right about the pH and acidic soils. Purple is in neutral (balance) soil a combination of blue and pink. So white is a different type of hydrangea. I know there are a couple variety of whites, off whites and their sizes vary a lot too. 😀

I used to hate hydrangeas, considering them fit only for old ladies. But now I am an old lady, I rather like them!
