I'm still in the thrall of that hydrangea stem. Pulled it closer to the plum so the blackish red color in both would be more apparent. Then decided to pull the hydrangea stem out of water altogether so I could view it in all its glory. Did that last night, and the foliage hasn't flagged one bit.  This is one tough piece of plant material!  Neither phto is very good, but the second one shows the color better than the first one. Have no idea what variety of hydrangea this is (it was included in a bucket of flowers someone brought to a flower arranging workshop), but if I could find it this morning, I'd pay a king's ransome for it.
