Here is a beautiful vintage clip art illustration of a Hydrangea Hortensis in full bloom. The engraving is from the Illustrated Dictionary of Gardening – A Practical and Scientific Encyclopedia of Horticulture, edited by George Nicholson, circa 1885.

This is stunning Julie! Thanks for sharing it.
I’m happy to know that you like this Kimberly! I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it. 🙂
Hydrangeas are one of my most favorite flower!
Was there any information in your book that went along with the picture? I would love to read what they have to say about them.
Thank you so much for all you hard work with the pictures. It makes my day to get your postings.
Love the hydrangea I hope to grow some this summer! Thank you
Are images like this public domain? I know it was published in 1885 so does that mean it is free to use?
Yes, David, it is a public domain image and you are welcome to use it for your project.
