I love hydrangeas…all varieties. Some are lacy, white, creamy, or balls of cosmic blue, purple, cotton candy pink, “tinker bell” green, or a combination of all. Many varieties depend on the acidity of the soil. The more acidic the soil, the more likely you are to get bright blue blossoms. The more alkaline the soil, you will see pink. I’ve gardened alongside my parents and grandparents to know that soil preparation is crucial to yielding good results, but I don’t know if another plant “wears” its soil on its sleeve like the hydrangea. I’m in a season of soil preparation…how about you? I suppose it’s better than weeding and pruning, but I’m sure that is soon to follow. Blessings on your day, dear ones as you cultivate. With the right preparation, it’s sure to lead to something beautiful!
