This post is coming a bit late, it’s been busy around here (like usual). I said on Sunday that flowers are the most common gift for Mother’s Day… apparently in my family, it means ones to add to the garden (not a vase).
I bought my mom this beautiful hydrangea. One of my favorite flowering bushes. I would’ve planted some already, if I had found the perfect place. Hubster looked at the plant after I purchased it, and asked with a wrinkled up nose, “What’s that supposed to be?” After I filled him in, he told me it’s ugly and it’s something he would’ve never picked out. I’m hoping that is only because it was a young plant…
Hydrangea
My one sister gave my mother a beautiful Azalea, white flowers with red stripes, I looks like little peppermint candies. My other sister gave us all vibrant Celosia (plumosa), a beautiful upright annual.
What plants did you give/get on Mother’s Day?

Did he forget about the hydrangeas from your wedding?
Wish I could have joined you all on Mother’s day!
No, he just didn’t know they were hydrangeas. HE remembers they were blue and these weren’t
I actually bought my mom some candles for her patio… I’m not a mother, but — in return — I received some beautiful violets. I am praying that I don’t kill them… I’m starting to get a reputation.
Are the violets for your garden? Or an indoor violet, like the African Violet?
We take our mothers out to eat.
