This nice baby is only one year old and I was surprised at the lovely bloom and how long it has lasted. I got it from Hirt's on ebay and it was very reasonably priced. The oakleaf hydrangeas seem to like the shade and dappled sunlight here . . . and even the clay soil! I just do not have quite enough direct sun for the coreopsis and gaillardia, much as I love them. There used to be a big bed of them at the house across the street from where we lived before we retired. When that house went into foreclosure, I sneaked over there to pick them and make bouquets to take to work. Probably shouldn't admit that but hey, why let them go to waste?
