Hydrangeas or in French, hortensias, flourish in Bretagne's gardens, roadsides, and fields--like that above. Native to Asia, the plant was introduced in France during the 18th century. The generous perennial shrub blooms from May to October and is so prevalent in French Brittany that it is considered to be the region's emblematic flower.
