    It's easy to get confused. We actually have quite neutral soil here, so we see both colours of hydrangea!
    I don't like them - I only grow the white ones  ;)
    I think if you can check what the condition of the soil is like , and make sure it's not waterlogged, that might help initially. If the soil isn't going to be suitable in terms of Ph, you can always plant it in a pot. They make nice little specimen plants  :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
  • I myself am not too fond off the pink hydrangeas , I was hoping to get a lot of blue in the garden so I suppose it actually works in my favour to turn it blue now by making acid! 

    And yes we have white and climbing ones too , they are gorgeous

    I'll have a few more goes at it, and if I'm defeated then yes I'll make pots of them :smile:
