I've heard of it but never seen it. It indeed looks like lace.
Lovely shot!

Beautiful! I think I saw this type of hydrangea at one of the southern state botanical gardens. I remember falling in love with it. Great photo which and I thank you for sharing it.
As a child my family spent several summers on the cape camping.near Provincetown. We only stopped going when my ad decided a cottage in Ontario. I remember it fondly
A beautiful hydrangea, I don't think I have seen this variety before. Very lovely.

So lovely. A new flower for me. Thank you.
What a gorgeous flower! I enlarged the photo to see the lovely lacy detail.
thanks! The photographs are probably better because I splurged my saved wages on a digital SLR. I'm also a lot less stressed, as in the last few months the school I was working for became even more disorganised than it was before, and we found it very difficult to find out what was going on, or get help with things.
I love the colour of this flower, think it'd make a great inspriation for a dress!
That is something I have never seen here - although I should very much like to.
