Hydrangea, from Greek, meaning water vessel.
The hydrangea, a highly regarded garden shrub today, has flowers ranging from deepest blue to light pink, depending on the acidity of the soil in which it grows. In the Victorian era, smaller varieties of hydrangeas were kept in pots as indoor plants.
In folklore, it is associated with gratitude, abundance and even boastfulness!
