Kay and others, I think I missed some messages for a while. What kind of
hydrangeas are we talking about here? the colored mopheads (hortensias)?
I didn't think mopheads were reliably hardy in zone 5, but there is a
beautiful big bush growing two blocks north of me that has ALL colors on
it--blue, violet, lavender, pink--WOW! What is it and what are they doing
to it to get that effect? How does it work! Do individual fls change color
as they age? I want one! (I'd ask the homeowner but they only moved in a
few months ago and I think the plant has been there a while.)
