A Hydrangea is always a beauty in each stage of growth. Well done this capture!

Have a wonderful week.

What pretty lacy remains of hydrangea flowers. I don't think I've noticed that before.

Dorothy Borders said...

What interesting pictures. Hydrangea blossoms are beautiful even as they fade. Those structures are amazing.

Cool texture. Spider web-like. I always bring in a bouquet of dried, green hydrangas in the fall.

Kenneth Cole Schneider said...

For a moment I thought they were the skeletons of sea creatures. I never noted this with my grandmother's hydrangeas. So interesting!

Sallie (FullTime-Life) said...

I love that about Hydrangeas -- they are lovely in all stages!

A hydrangea? Interesting and very nice! Never seen it like this before, makes me feel kind of philosophical.

Beautiful. Mother Nature is amazing.

Have a fabulous day, Betty. ♥

Heidi R. said...

In any case, interesting structures remain that stimulate my imagination!

Sara Chapman said...

Fascinating. Mine are under a big magnolia tree, and those leaves seem to do the same beautiful web-like thing. Thanks for hosting!

Nancy Chan said...

Interesting web like designs from the hydrangea clusters. Happy Wednesday.

Veronica Lee said...

Beautiful captures, Betty!

How beautifully interesting! Hydrangeas are one of the few flowers that looks beautiful for such a long time and through many stages.

Jill Harrison said...

wow wow wow - my hydrangeas never do this! Perhaps I need to leave the dead heads on the plants longer. Wonderful1 Thanks for sharing and for the link again this week. I have been absent lately because we have been away travelling up north. Stay safe.

I didn't realise what they were until you mentioned they were hydrangeas, so beautiful! #weekendcoffeeshare

Janet said...

I wouldn't have guessed those were spent hydrangeas. Great pix!

Rostrose said...

Wonderful, so tender, dear Betty!
Here the hydrangeas are fading, the migratory birds are leaving and the apples are gradually getting ripe.
The time of bloom has begun for you now, how beautiful, that is the cycle of nature!
Happy Weekend and all the best from Austria

Sorry I am so later. Such beautiful photos. Thanks for hosting and I hope that you have a wonderful week.

Gary A Wilson said...

Hello, I don't recognize you or this page so excuse my not greeting you by name.
I loved you nature photos and the unique idea of capturing essentially the skeleton of the blossoms. It resulted in a fascinating shot that merits thought and consideration.
Thanks for sharing

Spring is full of beautiful flowers and pollinators. Lovely rainbow reflection. Have a great week.
