Amazing ice cream today at Just Ice in Darley Park before a walk around @HydrangeaUK I had Vanilla and Strawberry and ate it admiring Hydrangea paniculata Vanille Fraise.

It's good to come down to our National Collection here in #Derby to see a broader range of Hydrangea forms to give balance. @HydrangeaUK

Today’s scenic buses are Derby’s super Sixes @trentbartonland, heading to Belper, Matlock and Bakewell. On the way out of the city, they stop at Darley Abbey where the hydrangeas look amazing! @HydrangeaUK

I am trying a standard Annabelle partly for a bit of fun but also due to a terrible lack of space.
