Exceptional year for hydrangeas, blooms along the east coast

Horticulture aficionados, nature lovers, and visitors from distant places are all in agreement: the hydrangeas along the Eastern Seaboard, from New Hampshire to the Mid-Atlantic states, are putting on an exceptional show this year. The vibrant and colorful clustered petals of the hydrangeas have turned many towns into picturesque havens.

Unprecedented Bloom

Following a wet fall and a mild winter, this summer is witnessing an unprecedented burst of blooms. Greyson Keller, owner of the Garden Group, a landscaping business in Nantucket, Mass., remarked, “This might be the most outstanding year for hydrangeas that I've witnessed in at least the past decade."
