What's blooming in Washington,DC
These hydrangeas didn’t come to play… 🌺
💖 Hot pink. Lush. Bursting out like they’re singing in bloom.
Found this shock of color tucked just outside the Conservatory at the U.S. Botanic Garden—blink and you’ll miss it.
Some are still green and just waking up… others are fully open and flaunting their petals like royalty.

Don’t just walk by. Stop. Snap. Soak in the color therapy.
