The hydrangeas just continue to bloom and bloom as summer rolls along. The
varieties of Vanilla Strawberry, Limelight and Pink Diamond are blooming
their heads off in a tree form which make for quite a display near a patio
or in the landscape bed with other shrubs or perennials. Take a look
at some of these pretty show stoppers....

 A weekly blog from
Tom Dayton....
all blogs
July 25,
2014
The rain has stopped for a “normally” drier July and maybe
August so that we are using more water than ever for irrigation. With the
rain water stored in the irrigation pond getting low some water may have to
be used as a supplement from Van Hyning Run that flows behind the nursery.
The water in this ever-flowing creek is of a less than desirable quality
because of the pollution sources upstream but the effects on the nursery
stock from this water is minimal as it is mixed with the stored rain water.
The hydrangeas just continue to bloom and bloom as summer rolls along. The
varieties of Vanilla Strawberry, Limelight and Pink Diamond are blooming
their heads off in a tree form which make for quite a display near a patio
or in the landscape bed with other shrubs or perennials. Read entire blog entry...
