# What is the best way to change the acidity of the soil my hydrangea…

_Geplaatst door Alikez op 2024-09-01_

What is the best way to change the acidity of the soil my hydrangea plant is in? We bought it and it was yellow and blue and now it's red and purple, which is pretty but just not the colors I wanted lol. Any advice would be appreciated.

You can also buy soil acidifier or ph balancer. You can google  
The type of hydrangea you have and it’ll tell you what levels of ph you need for the colors you’re looking for.
