Vitax Hydrangea Colourant Enthusiast Range,250g

Worked a treat. We had beautiful, blue hydrangeas blooming all summer long.

It works on my hydrangers

Only arrived yesterday afternoon, looks ok but I haven’t used it yet

I bought this product to treat a 'Blue Boogie Woogie' Hydrangea that had been planted in a pot of ericaceous compost two summers ago but was starting to turn pink. I have mulched with more compost and treated with the Vitax and the colour is gradually reverting to blue but after a few weeks it still has not regained its startling 'blueness' so patience is probably required!This is not a cheap product considering how much you need for a fairly small pot and you may need to repeat the treatment periodically. If you have your hydrangea planted in the garden and don't have acid soil you are wasting your money by fighting with nature (you won't win) so maybe try the cheaper options of adding spent coffee grounds/crushed egg shells in an attempt to change the ph around your plant.Good luck

I have used this before it does work well would recommend

My hydrangeas were already planted so I had to water the colourant into the pots. I consentrated on just two plants and managed to get the most beautiful shade of blue, I would say a mid blue and very vibrant but not on all the heads. I think it is nice to have a variety of colours on the one plant. I have marked it down one star because I found I needed to use a lot of the product which makes it a bit expensive but I will buy it again next year.

When I purchased my hydrangea, it was a mauve colour, but as new flowers came through, they were increasingly pink and I wanted them to stay more blue, so I did some research and found Vitax Hydrangea Colourant.The product was easy to use by dissolving in warm water before adding to a watering can and then watering the plant. After a couple of uses I could clearly see the flowers changing colour. The more frequently you use it, the more blue the flowers go.The product could be improved if a measuring scoop were included, but I easily weighed the powder on my weighing scales to ensure correct dosage.

I wanted to turn my hydrangea blue but after two applications I’m still waiting. Disappointing.
