The 'snowball' blooms abundantly, diving headfirst into the spring of hydrangea flowers

'As the hydrangea's spring evening brings a hint of cold, the trees are adorned with exquisite snow yet to dry. The falling poplar flowers go unnoticed, as butterflies suddenly gather in swarms.' If the plum blossom is the messenger of spring, then the blooming of the hydrangea signifies that spring is more than halfway through, and the height of summer is about to arrive. Every early April, in the greenery square next to the Bai Gong Garden and the Finance Bureau along the Jiangbin landscape belt in Dongyang City, the pure white hydrangeas bloom tree after tree, outlining a tranquil beauty. The hydrangea is elegant and serene, neither coquettish nor flirtatious. When in full bloom, the 'snowballs' fill the branches, and when they first open, they are as fresh and green as jade, offering a strong visual aesthetic. The Song dynasty poet Gu Feng wrote: 'It is the time when reds are scarce and greens are dark, the flowers are like round jade, bright and flawless. Who has thrown the snowballs high, frozen on the branches, spring unaware?' The hydrangea's blooming period is about 10 days, at the peak of its splendor, do not wait for the flowers to return another spring. 📍Detailed address: Renmin Road, Dongyang City, Zhejiang Province
