Hydrangeas

. Tuesday, June 8, 2010 .
Our neighbor, Ralph, has the greenest thumb of anyone I have even known. He keeps us in vegetables from his garden all summer long. Forget going to the Farmer's Market. He has even given us permission to go into the garden if we every need anything he has. I have eaten some things I can't even tell you what they are. But they all have been good. Not only does he do great vegetables, but his hydrangeas are awesome. He must have 20 bushes along side his out building. Mark love these flowers. We have tried for years to grow some. His grandmother had blue ones when he was growing up. He has tried I can't tell you how many time to grow some blue ones just like here. But not so much luck.

Except I think we just might have a little winner in the front yard this year. It might be pink now, but I can tell you that he will be on the Internet looking for what chemicals he has to add to the ground to make them turn blue...I think it is something having to do with the PH or acidic conditions in the soil. You just wait, I'll be keeping you posted.
