Dried Hydrangeas

Hydrangeas are magical, especially when they go from fresh flowers to dried. One of my favorite varieties to grow and dry is the Pinky Winky hydrangea. I love the colors—from soft pinks to deeper hues—which make them beautiful in the garden and dried.

When it’s time to dry them, I either place the stems in water or hang them upside down in my flower house. Pinky Winky’s tend to hold their shape and color, adding a touch of rustic charm to any space.

The Endless Beauty of Hydrangeas in My Garden

Most of the dried hydrangeas in this photoshoot are pinky-winky. The greener blooms you see are Limelights, another favorite in our flower garden.

Over the years, we’ve been adding different hydrangea varieties to our garden, and I love how these perennials come back, stronger and more stunning with each season.

Hydrangeas and Vintage Baskets: A Perfect Pair

There’s something so charming about pairing dried hydrangeas with vintage baskets.  The texture and character of the baskets perfectly complement the hydrangeas’ natural beauty.

A Favorite To Photograph

Hydrangeas are also one of my favorite flowers to photograph. I love their size, texture, and the way their colors come alive in a photo. If you love hydrangeas, you can see more hydrangea photos in my last post, “Capturing Summer In My Flower Garden.”
