Shopping at Soares yesterday for a client’s plants, I came across this lovely, appropriately positioned just by the entrance!  Pale purple, with a yellow center on each petal, and just plain adorable.  So adorable, I called the client and suggested she might want one, too!

Most of my hydrangeas have blessedly come into my life as hand-me-overs.  But here was a chance to BUY one—-too beautiful to pass by.

Tuff Stuff is its name.  And when I hurried her home last evening, the challenge became where best to show her off.  She gets 2-3 by 2-3.  Can’t wait to settle her in later today.
