JUNE

Penny Mac Hydrangea Festival - June 6-7, 2008

Penny McHenry, founder of the American Hydrangea Society, has been featured on TV Shows and in too many magazines to mention. Her love for hydrangeas grew as a result of a friend sending her a hydrangea when she lost her daughter to a tragic death. She propagated that hydrangea and the rest is history. The American Hydrangea Society has grown to have members across the United States and internationally.

The "Penny Mac" Hydrangea was named for Penny McHenry. This honor was well deserved as Penny shared her love and knowledge of hydrangeas with so many individual and garden clubs across the country.
