Does anyone else think these flowers are exceptionally ugly?

>>7978882
On the contrary. This thread made me think that they're really beautiful.

>>7978592
Finally a good fucking thread.

>>7978882
>>7978939
Agreed. They're not my favorite by any means, but I do kind of like them.
>>7978940
And yeah, for a one-post start, this thread did do really well!

>>7978882

>>7980711
incredible thread tyvm

>>7978592
It's weird that there's a thread here for this, I just figured out what these were called last week. The thread has been here longer but the word Hydrangea has been stuck in my head.

>>7978758
Blessed thread. This is what paradise looks like to me.

>>7978592
I fucking LOVE hydrangeas

>>7978882
Their physical shape is only alright, but the gradient they develop blows my mind every time I walk by a bush

>but the gradient they develop blows my mind

Having grown these flowers for years now it's worth noting that certain varieties of Hydrangea with coloured flowers are affected by soil pH, such that in acidic soils (pH 6 and below) their flowers will start turning to various shades of blue, while in alkaline soil (pH 8 and above) the flowers will start turning to shades of pink to red, with neutral soils (pH 7) resulting in either purple shades and/or sometimes in blue, purple, and pink flowers all occurring on the same plant at the same time as can be seen in some of the papes in this thread.

So by carefully controlling the soil pH in your garden it's actually possible to control (to some extent) the colour of your hydrangea planting.

N.B. Exclusively white hydrangea varieties however are generally not affected by this and will always have white flowers regardless of soil pH.
