@mousiegirl

Those are lovely to see!! I love seeing what people are growing in their gardens!!

At the lecture I attended a week ago, I found out its easier to turn pink flowers to blue than blue to pink.

 

Its going to take some time. Aluminum sulfate is a quicker acting agent to lower pH; sulfur is slower acting to lower pH.

I love my lace caps too!

Mousiegirl, so glad you posted. Hydrangeas are my favorite, least fussy shrub of all time! Love your photos. You are away ahead of us here in Nova Scotia. We are at least a couple of weeks away from flowers.

Keep the photos coming! If I can learn to resize photos i'll post more😀! LM

I am still learning that.  Jazzmom posted how to do it in this thread, so take a look at it.  My format is different from her instructions, but it still put me on the right track. From "my pictures,"  I "crop", apply, and save," then come to a thread, hit the icon, and go from there, but still at times, I get the "too large" pop up.  Sometimes I change the "full size" to medium or large, and then the picture posts, and sometimes that does not work.

I noticed that some of your hydrangeas are "purple" - a combination of the two!

 

Many of mine are purple, which is why I also planted some Blushing Bride varieties.
