I have many hydrangeas that must be wrapped in deer fence, but not this giant. The deer herd walks right by it.
Its blooms are a creamy white with a hint of pink.
The aroma is floral mixed with hints of citrus and vanilla.
Gorgeous every May. Zero maintenance.
Win, win and win again!

It’s odd that they don’t eat that one.

I love these. Curious about the deer?? A native defense mechanism somewhere?
