how did my grandma turn her backyard into a hydrangea paradise?

Every summer, my grandma’s backyard turns into a sea of blue and pink hydrangeas. She always says the secret is talking to them while she waters. I used to laugh, but now I catch myself doing it too. She never lets the soil dry out, and she swears by adding coffee grounds for that deep color. We spend afternoons together, snipping off old blooms to help new ones grow. It’s wild how a little care and patience can turn a simple bush into something magical. Seeing her face light up when neighbors stop to admire her flowers is the best part. I’ve learned that gardening isn’t just about plants—it’s about sharing little moments and watching them bloom into big happiness. gardening #hydrangeas #familytime #backyardbliss #gardening #hydrangeas #familytime #backyardbliss
