Well wasn't it nice, I was holding bunch of flowers and they said that it was the best-The HYDRANGEA (got the blue one). I was told that their flowers can stay up to 2 weeks even if you just put it on vase filled with water). HYDRANGEAS are produced from early spring to late autumn. It can be found in Eastern and Southern Asia and also in the Northern and Southern America.
