How do you get hydrangeas in dark colors much less dark rust and green (YUCK)to begin with? I thought they came in white, pink, and blue.

And who, in 25 years, is going to remember the color of the flowers of a wedding they attended? (Besides the *traumatized* bride)

You must grow hydrangeas too. To get pinks takes no work at all. To get blue, rust or green takes an incredibly green thumb, and thus may (MAY) be worth the expense. Pink hyds suck.

“That is you. Apparently, it is difficult for you to allow anyone else an opinion that is not based on your standards.”

I’m not sure what you mean by not “allowing” anyone else’s opinion, you certainly give me more credit of having powers I don’t possess.
I can - however - disagree with your opinion as well as this bride.

Let’s forget she became wedded to the love of her life on that day. Let’s forget that marriage is more than the wedding - that it is about the years sharing two lives together.
Let’s forget she must have been surrounded by family and friends who took the time to be present to offer their support for the newlyweds.
Let’s forget all that and focus on one screw-up and claim that the “trauma” of the flowers had the power to undo all the good things that happened that day and ruined it all.

I could understand if she was “disappointed” in shoddy service.
I could even understand if she was “angry” at the florist considering the amount of money they received.

I still say “trauma” is a silly claim.

You, Apparantly, will not “allow” to hold this opinion?
