Hydrangea are interesting plants. The colour o the flowers depends on the pH of the soil and it's possible to manipulate their colour by adjusting the pH. Sometimes, the flowers from a single plant can show multiple colours, like this one does.
This bush is over 5 years old, and well-established. It's been producing more pink flowers each successive year, but for the moment, it's very interesting to see a spectrum of blue, yellow and pink all on the same plant.

A very prolific plant - we used to have some in our front garden.
ReplyDeleteMine are out in bloom now and your colors are like mine. Nice photography to show the subtle colors, Buck.
