Nikko Blue Hydrangea

Hydrangea macrophylla 'Nikko Blue' From Eastern Asia, Hydrangea (hortensia) is generally used as a shrub but can occasionally be pruned into a tree. Generally deciduous, its flowers change color based on the soil. The more acidic the soil, the more pink the blooms become. When the soil is alkaline, the flowers turn a bold blue color. This is a classic Mop Head Hydrangea. One that may bring memories of grandmother’s garden.
