Hydrangea! I've come to really love them, especially in winter when the flowers are translucent and delicate and glow in the afternoon sun. They hang on tenaciously till the next generation surplants them.
I love the way this dainty remnant of last season's beauty, beautiful in its dried state that emphasizes the delicate veining and tones, is poking through the snow. Very nice. Top 10 for me. Voted earlier; back to comment.
