Hydrangea paniculata 'Vanille Fraise' (syn.'Renhy')

The first of two Hydrangeas starting to flower. This one has lovely emerging green buds that turn into white flowers, which then age to a rustic pink. #hydrangea

@beckers1974 - it's starting 😁👌🏼

This is one of my favourites! I love how the petals change from the minute they appear with that lovely greeny white hue, to the beautiful creamy white to the dusky pink in Autumn. It's a winner! 👌🏼

@richard.spicer.7906 is it possible that a hydrangea that hasn't budded this year could still do so? Iv had to move mine since last year and it's yet to flower!

@v.macd possibly, both mine have only just started to flower. Did you prune it this year or at the time of moving it?

@richard.spicer.7906 I pruned it this year whilst it was still in the ground but it didn't seem to be doing well at all so I repotted it and it's thrived since, bushed out well but no signs of buds!

I finally got round to creating the database for this Hydrangea, although it's looking slightly more 'crispy' than it did last month. They were a lovely pink colour just before this.

One of two new Hydrangeas that I purchased in September - Vanilla Fraise. Blond start off white and then they turn pink from the edges as it fades. I've fallen in love with this over the last month ❤️

*bloom not blond 😂

It never ceases to amaze me with the different colours they produce throughout the seasons 👌👌👌

Very delicate and lovely 🐰

It's beautiful Richard can see why you love it. 🌟😊

Thanks @fuschia , I thought they had gone out of fashion a few years ago but they are making a real comeback!

It sure is @debs69 . There is only a couple of blooms on it currently as it's very small plant still, but I have high hopes for next year 🤓

It's sneaked into my top 5 at the moment @mojo 😀
