They seem to belong in front of Cape Cod style houses, don’t they? If you want to grow blue hydrangeas, you will need to control the pH of the soil they are planted in. I love how they change colour depending on where they are planted. You will need to get the right variety, though. Mophead changes colours.
Thanks for the pro tip! That is pretty neat how they can come in different colours, all of which are beautiful. Something to to consider for next Spring when I can plant my garden!
Yes, so pretty. They change colour based on pH levels, and will range from white all the way to a very pale pink to a dark blue and purple. The mophead variety will do this.

I LOVE hydrangeas, especially the blue ones. I’m hoping to grow some along the front of my house next Spring. They always remind me of Cape Cod.

These plants are so pretty… am I correct in believing that iron turns the flowers blue?
And without iron they are pink?
