Deep pink hydrangea.


Deep pink hydrangea.

Don't know any name for it. It was a gift years ago & it doesn't flower very often!

I wonder why it doesn't flower much as they usually flower every year, no probs. perhaps some tomato feed would give it a boost for next year?

Yes I have fed it & watered it well, but for several years it was in the shade & close vicinity of a big conifer next door, so I guess that didn't help!
Then they had the tree cut down a few years ago & the hydrangea has gradually picked up since.
I am hoping it will keep on improving year after year now!

I used to bury all my old used brillo pads near it - hoping that it would improve the colour!!! (iron)
Not sure whether it has, I can't quite remember exactly what it like when I first had it years ago!
