Just remember that the Ph of the soil will determine future bloom color.

But you knew that... :-)

I was vaguely aware of it but it doesn't hurt to be reminded. I pay my
landscape contractor and my gardner to make up for my ignorance.

This is lovely Pat. I read where if you feed Aluminum Sulphate it keeps them blue &
Lime will make a more pink colour?
Now if I were starting over like you, I would go with everything blue/silver &
plants that humming birds love! *G*
