Hydrangeas Are Remarkable

The hydrangea is a flowering plant that changes colors according to the soil's acidity. The flowers of the hydrangea can range from light pink to deep blue. The blossoms are sometimes vast clusters of tiny flowers that resemble a pom-pom. There are two flower types in the hydrangea family. The enormous variety will have pom-poms or mop-head flowers. The smaller plant will have a lacy bundle of flowers. Both varieties contain a center of fertile blossoms surrounded by sterile blossoms.


Hydrangeas Have Stunning Blooms


The flowers of the popular yard décor can be produced from early spring into late autumn, depending on the climate. The ability to change the flowers' color is based on the soil's ph or acid levels. The higher alkaline levels of the soil will produce a pink flower, and the more acidic soil will produce deep blue blossoms. If one chooses, the blossom colors can be changed by simply altering the acidic levels in the soil.


Hydrangeas Can Get Very Large


The plants can become large bushes or small trees in a relatively short period according to the conditions they are planted in. The ornamental plant thrives in rich, acidic soil with plenty of sun and water.
