The Hydrangea planted in the Beast raised garden in the back yard as it appeared after the first freeze of winter. Our lovely flowers had turned brown and almost vanished against the background of fallen autumn leaves.

A closer view of our Hydrangea showed one of its flowers. Each of the Hydrangea flowers was composed of many tiny, 4-petal, lavender blooms.

Our Hydrangea was in full bloom. It grew in our backyard raised garden bed called the "Beast."

One of the first flowers to appear was at the top of the Hydrangea. It was green and tried to hide among the leaves.

A homemade sign identified this plant as a "Hydrangea." The leaves were oblong and pointed at the ends.
