HYDRANGEA 
P. G.— 
This is the variety which blooms in 
August, the large cone-shaped heads of 
bloom being white at first then changing to 
pink. To secure that wonderful show of 
bloom which you often see, they should 
have a good soil, plenty of moisture and be 
protected from the hot south winds. An 
ideal location is on the north side of the 
house and beyond the range of the roots 
and shade of large trees. Severe pruning 
in spring will insure much larger bloom.
