splishsplash Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 HelloCan anybody tell me if there is a way to turn Hydrangeas back to Pink?They were lovely when I bought them, but we obviously have an acid soil & they are now all blue/purple. I like the colour, but nor for all of them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gardengirl Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Years ago we scattered lime to change the colour of hydrangeas.I also remember my father putting the used tea leaves from the teapot around hydrangeas; don't know which colourway he was trying to change, but have an idea it was for pink flowers; maybe there's aluminium in there!Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
