Not Yet Dead!

Almost in the bin!

This hydrangea has been having a rough go of it. It got really stressed mid-late summer last year and we actually considered throwing it away. I decided to just leave it alone and see if came back in the spring. Lo and behold, it's putting out new buds!

It might die yet, but we decided to leave it where it is to minimize stress. I'm going to use some of my tree wrap to try to protect it from the sun.
