    Hi i have a number of Hydrangeas in the garden, 3 in pots and 2 in ground, all are about 2 or 3 years old. All are pink and am looking to change up the colour of the flowers for a bit of variety. What's the best way to go from pink to white? Or pink to blue. Will it be easier do with the ones in the ground?

    I don't think there is a way to change Pink/Blue to White or vice versa.

    To change from pink to blue, you can add aluminum sulphate, feed them with acidic fertilizer (i.e. azalea and rhododendron) or repotting them in ericaceous compost.

    Good luck!

    To have a white Hydrangea you need to purchase the Annabelle variety. I have these in my front garden and they are lovely. Acidic soil for pink to blue.
