Applications and Timing for Coloring Hydrangeas
Researcher: Heather Stoven
A past study at NWREC looked at aluminum sources and timing for the bluing of hydrangea sepals. Al2SO4 drenches or Al-chelate foliar sprays were applied to containerized hydrangeas in the summer, fall and spring. Evaluations were made based on plant growth and sepal color.
