Hydrangea Farm Challenge

I love hydrangeas and have a dream of having a cut-flower hydrangea farm one day. This blog is a way for me to review my progress in realising that dream and to ensure that I won't give up on this challenge. Come and support me!

Wish List

My wish list for hydrangea varieties:

  • Hydrangea Macrophylla Endless Summer
  • Hydrangea Macrophylla Harlequin
  • Hydrangea Macrophylla Parzifal
  • Hydrangea Macrophylla Altona
I would really like to get the varieties below from Hydrangea Plus, but, they don't provide shipping to Malaysia :(
  • Hydrangea Macrophylla President R. Touchard
  • Hydrangea Macrophylla Princess Juliana
  • Hydrangea Macrophylla  Altona
  • Hydrangea Macrophylla Brestenburg

More pictures of pink, blue and purplish hydrangeas from my garden. They are all from the same variety, but I don't know the name of the variety. I'm trying to find out about this.



They are all planted in pots under a shaded area, safe from current monsoon heavy rain which could droop the blooms. 









For blue blooms, the soil pH must be acidic. And if you want pink blooms, the soil pH must be alkaline. Another reason why I love them. I could easily change their bloom colors :) 




The blooms below are purplish which means the soil pH is neutral.
