Beautiful! Here's some helpful info for those people buying or giving flowering plants from a florist. More times than not, they are force grown in a greenhouse and will only bloom the one time. RARELY will they bloom again. Certainly not from the original growth.
My Mother was given a Hydrangia as a gift that came from a florist and was told it wouldn't ever bloom again. Well, she planted it in her yard and never expected it to bloom again. Finally, after nearly 10 years, it bloomed again. Now it is HUGE and blooms every year. It's quite beautiful.
Is there a florist on here that can confirm this? Or refute it?
