I love milflores! In a recent Davao trip, I saw these growing on the side of the road en route to Mt. Apo. They’re so pretty!

I love hydrangeas! When I got married 5 years ago, my Aunt’s contribution was to provide dozens and dozens of milflores from the Cojuangco farm in Bacolod and shipped them to Manila. Gorgeous heads - as big as a dinner plate. Love them!!

It is interesting to note that the color of the hydrangea blooms is dependent on the soil pH (acidity). Blue flowers are produced when the soil is acidic and has high aluminum content; pink flowers result when the soil is of a higher pH and aluminum is not present. (Reminds us of the litmus paper test we used in high school chemistry, right?) Because of this, growers can control the color of the blooms from their plants. Some varieties can be made to change color more easily than others. Personally though, I haven’t had much luck in growing them. Fickle-minded is a correct description.
