Re: Hydrangea colour change

Again I have expressed myself badly.  I have
two bushes with this strange bearing of the
two colours, the other bush has been doing it
for years.  The one I wrote about only started 
to do it this year:
The bush is a mature bush, at least 8 years old.
One bush.   It has always flowered with a very
strong blue.   It still is 97pc blue but has
three old canes quite pink.   It grows in a
bed of specie Rhododendrons, all looking fine.
The bed has had no special treatment only the
removal and replanting of a Rhodo because of
over crowding.   Very odd.   Both colours are
very strong.  Sorry to confuse.Another new year's
resolution, not to dash letters off and call a
birch tree a bich!
