Hydrangea questions
Posted on May 6, 2004
Question:
I've been researching for hydrangeas, because I heard they grow good in the shade. But none of the information is ever the same. Are they for the shade of full sun? And another one. Do they prefer acidic soil or non? Every where I look, different answers. Please help.
Answer:
You may be reading about different varieties. In general, they will grow in sun to part shade & take acidic soil. If you would like to turn the pink blooms on some varieties to blue, put aluminum sulphate around them.
