I don’t know what this plant is. We rescued it from the disaster that was our garden when we moved into our house five years ago. I suspect it’s something like a hydrangea (answers on a postcard please).
When we moved in the garden was a jungle of ivy. You literally had to hack your way through it to get anywhere. It was a “designer” garden which had been left to run wild. Occasionally I’d find an especially lovely plant drowning in the ivy. I’d carefully dig it up, plant it in a pot and put it to one side until the garden had been cleared and we could plant it up properly.
This is by far my favourite find and I always look forward to it flowering. Even when the flowers fade we’re left with fragile looking papery flower heads. Yjeu mostly last through winter providing some interest until we cut them off in spring.
I’m still struggling to get my head around everything that’s been going on for me at the moment. I’ve been making a point of going outside each day and looking at some of the nice things in the garden. A bit of fresh air and nature will always do me some good and I’m just trying to be kind to myself.
I don’t know what plant is that. Looks so beautiful and delicate. xx

I have no idea what it is but it looks very pretty!
Thinking of you xxx
I don’t think it is Hydrangea, the petals look too small, look after it though and yes a little outdoors and nature always makes the world feel a friendlier place. xx
Beautiful plant and i think it is definitely in the hydrangea family.
Love this – I’m pretty sure it’s a hydrangea as my dad has a pink one in his garden. x
