It's another rainy day and another gloomy day. No gardening can be done in the garden in this weather which may last till Chinese New Year.
Have taken several pictures of the variety that i bought from Sungai Buloh 2 weeks ago. I'm trying to identify it's genus. My guess would be Hydrangea Macrophylla Rheinland - though I'm unsure about this.

| Would you be 'Rheinland'? |
 |
| You can see clearly in this picture that most of the petals (the actual flowers) are not opening yet. And then there's one that's blooming, at the top right. All petals are surrounded by deep pink sepals which we take as the hydrangea flower. |
The second variety is the one I bought in Cameron Highland 2 months+ ago. Now this one is a bit hard to identify. I don't think it's any one of these - but my lucky guess would be Hydrangea Macrophylla Bodensee or Hydrangea Macrophylla Dooley. I have 2 pots of this variety - one appears to have smoky lilac colour and the other, seems to be smoky pink.

| Would you be 'Bodensee' or 'Dooley' or none of both? Who are you? |

| Up close and personal |

| The smoky pink coloured sepals due to alkaline soil |

I'm sure gonna frame the close-up pictures and put them in my bedroom :)
