Hi Sweeties!Oh my gosh..... I can hardly believe this!
My sweet and adorable Hubbs bought me TWO Limelight Hydrangeas for my birthday.
I was soooo ExCiTEd...
I love that yummy springy green, don't you?
We live in a little town.We DO NOT live in the country.
We do NOT live in a forest.
We do NOT live with wildlife.
However.
It seems we've been having some visitors in the AFTERNOON.
DEER!
And, they decided to EAT all the tops off of my new hydrangeas.... A new PeeGee too...
And, went over to my porch.....rambled on through the shrubs and ATE
the tops off all of my geraniums too.
HOLY MOLY!
So, now my question is....
I know enough to fill a thimble about hydrangeas..... I can grow 'em, but don't know about the "old wood" VS: "new wood" business.
I just know all of you smarty green thumb chickies will have the answer for me.
Are they going to be OK?
Ok...........here's question number 2.
How the heck did this happen????
Yep, they ARE two different hydrangeas.... I have them all across the front of the house.
BUT.
I have NEVER planted a lace leaf hydrangea.
Not that I don't think they're pretty, but I had one at my old house and always wanted those big 'ol mop head ones.
Honestly, I'm going to go through some pictures, but I KNOW it wasn't there last year.
Another mystery at the Cottage.
Have a wonderful day DeAR OnEs...
