Hydrangea Macrophylla F. Normalis (Lacecap Hydrangea) - No.1 額紫陽花（ガクアジサイ）No.1

Japanese follows English. 英語の後に日本語が続きます。

The rainy season has come earlier than usual in most parts of Japan (luckily not in Tokyo yet!), and that means the hydrangea season has also come. This is hydrangea macrophylla f. normalis or lacecap hydrangea. How beautiful the tiny colorful flowers surrounded by the sepals are!

It's like pointillism painting!! 点描画みたい！

Other types of hydrangea are also colorful, but the lacecap ones are special because the center part consisting of many flowers are like dots in pointillism painting, which cheer me up every morning😊 

This is the second post of a series about hydrangeas this year. If you're interested in panicled hydrangea, a corn-shaped hydrangea, read this!!
