How do I know if my hydrangeas will turn blue?
Only hydrangeas of the Hydrangea Macrophylla, which includes Lacecap and Mopheads, and Hydrangea Serrata varieties can be manipulated to change flower color, and some cultivars of those varieties are more capable than others.
For other varieties such as: Endless Summer, Nikko Blue, Penny-Mac, Nantucket Nikko, Blue Danube, Blue Wave, Blauer Prinz, etc. it is best to check plant tags for type and color-change capability.
