@ Amazing Hydrangea "I've bought so many artistic souvenirs already my rucksack's almost full!" said Wawatay. "Me too!" said Sherpa. "It's great on this tour, isn't it?" Amazing Hydrangea The hydrangea is rightly a very popular garden shrub, coming in a variety of gorgeous colours. Did you know that some hydrangeas have the ability to change the colour of their flowers? This colour change is due to the soil pH which affects aluminium availability. Those with blue or pink flowers tend to be blue in acid soil conditions (high available aluminium levels), mauve in acid to neutral soil conditions, and pink in alkaline conditions. White flowers, and also green-flowered cultivars, remain white or green regardless of soil pH. Try to use rainwater to water hydrangeas, since mains hard water can affect the flower colour, turning blue flowers mauve or pink.
While enjoying the show, you met Wawatay.
Sherpa shook paws with Wawatay the Arctic Feisty Fox. They both received one silver mole!
@ Pastel Fractal As Sherpa's tour of "World of Pastel " comes to an end, she receives a seasonally appropriate gift! Isn't Fall Just Peachy For many pets, fall is their favorite season.

Pastel Fractal A fractal is a geometric shape that is self-similar through infinite iterations in a recursive pattern and through infinite detail. It couldn't be simpler! Our example here might be part of a rather splendid ceiling or perhaps an ornate lampshade! Sherpa has completed her tour of "World of Pastel "!
