Pink new leaves on blueberry

Hi, I recently bought a blueberry plant. However its leaves when growing are turning pink. I’ve planted it in a pot of erinaceous compost, with some slow release fertiliser for erinaceous plants and I’m making sure to water it with water with ph of no higher than 5. I’ve read online that it could just be the cold weather, but I’m not convinced. The leaves are otherwise growing nicely. Does anyone have any ideas? Many thanks

    It’s ok ... perfectly normal and nothing to worry about. Just the colour of some young leaves, particularly with plants that have a lot of pigment that will later colour they’d flowers or fruit  😊
