hydrangea questions - July 9th, 2005 at 08:26 PM
I have 2 huge hydrangeas - bloom from new and old wood - cut them back every other year.
1. When is the best time to divide them? I have neighbors begging for some and mine are taking over too much space.
2. Mine have tons of white blossoms. Has anyone successfully changed the color of the blossoms? I've heard that you can change them to blue or pink by adding something to the soil.
I thought it would be fun to confuse the neighbors by changing the color every couple of years.
