Hydrangea Lovers Dream

Hydrangea Lovers Dream Come True

You never know when & where you will find a Garden Treasure. August 2017 we vacationed in Newport RI and Cape Cod where I found the Garden of my Dreams.

To be exact it is The North American Hydrangea Test Garden at Heritage Museums & Gardens in Sandwich Mass. on Cape Cod.

Heritage Museums & Gardens is made up of 100 acres of landscaped gardens, water features, sculpture, walking trails, nature trails, gallery buildings and more. 

And The North American Hydrangea Test Garden is home to over 150 cultivars and species, showcased beautifully.  I have never seen so many varieties and different colors of Hydrangeas.  I'm sure I photographed every single Hydrangea, and every petal.  I gasped at the beauty of each one and the colors, the shades, were magical.

True Hydrangea Heaven.

 If you find yourself on the Cape, be sure to stop into Heritage Museum & Gardens, The North American Hydrangea Test Garden will be there for a few more years. Don't miss it.

The Gardens are filled with many beautiful flowers, plants & trees.  But the highlight is definitely the Hydrangeas, along with the most gorgeous displays of Echinacea Flowers.

Hope you enjoy a few of the hundreds and hundred of Hydrangeas I photographed.  

This is my inspiration for my latest Hydrangea Watercolor, I have many more to paint.

Enjoy!

Thank you for visiting and I hope you Love Hydrangeas as much as I do.

Did you know - Worldwide, hydrangeas are the most celebrated, cherished and revered garden plants.
