Prospect CT Summer Colors Special Hydrangeas
It has been an exceptional yer for blooms all over the state, especially hydrangeas. The mix of heat, water and some care has made almost anybody that has a hydrangea look like the absolute greatest gardener.
I posted of our blue hydrangeas, earlier and they are a wall of colors, so much so that the stalks cannot support the weight of the blossoms.

We have a smaller bush that was given to my wife some years ack as a Mother's Day gift and aside from the first year, never grew a bloom. A portion of that was the activity of dear chewing all the leaves and buds before they could get a start. This year I was ahead of the deer and the blossoms got a chance and they are special.
As best as I can determine, the flower is called Tokyo delight with large white leaves and a blue cluster center core.

The white portion of the flower look like silk petals. I imagine that would be the treat the deer went after. There are still some buds attempting to bloom so there should be a lot more to appreciate.
