Hydrangeas can be made permanent by letting them soak up a mixture of 3 parts h2o and 1 part glycerin. a tip from a granny

It is my understanding that if the hydrangea gets too cold in the winter it won’y blossom. Also, the leaves should never be pruned off as they are necessary to the flowering process.

My friend clipped a couple of her hydrangeas from her yard for me and I put one in a small vase and left it there in my bathroom, forgotten. After awhile, I realized that it had dried into this beautiful, although slightly more fragile color. I’ve now had it for more than three years, if you can believe that. I just love it…and now I have my own hydrangeas in my front yard! Lucky me :)

You have inspired me to go pick some from my garden and set them out this weekend. They are so beautiful and I agree about using the smallvases.

Oooh so pretty! Flowers never last long enough for my liking and these look so delicate and pretty – definitely not old lady!
