Green Leaves ~ Color Crazy

Kim Johnson has started a fun challenge. Feel free to join and click here for the guidelines Kim’s Color Crazy Challenge. This week’s colors are Green to Yellow.

I found a couple of green garden photos to share in this challenge. This first one is my Hydrangea. Another perennial that grows up to ten feet each year. Then I cut it all the way back at the end of the summer and it returns the next spring. A great way to garden. The second photo shows the green shiny leaves of my Holly bush. I have these all around the house. They have red berries in the winter for the birds. And they are evergreen, they stay green year round.

Hydrangea

This Hydrangea bud will make a huge flower which looks almost like a boquet. It is a blue color and is always a joy to see.

This photo shows new growth on my Holly bush. These bushes stay green all year and produce red berries for the birds.

    • Yes, I cut it all the way back to the ground. If you don’t not only will it not return, but the leaves get wilted and is very unhealthy. I have more shots I can post.
