we call them Hortensias in Mexico, nice color
Hi Katie, what a beautiful color!
As this is a cultivated plant it doesn't belong in the wildflower mission. It also isn't really appropriate for the Backyards Habitats mission which is for organisms spotted in backyards that have been created specifically to attract wildlife. Please can you remove this from these 2 missions. You might like to add this to the Color Blue mission instead. Thanks!
Pretty.
Thanks! I'm always afraid of writing the wrong name for a plant. Ha ha.
