The addition of aluminum sulfate will push the flower color to a blue hue creating a dramatic new look. Moisture is a necessity of this plant. Use them in stylish pots or as part of a garden border planting.
Make sure you feed generously in spring and autumn to be rewarded with great flower performance. The rich pink and white variegated flowers of 'Edgy Hearts' turn blue and white in acidic soils, and then they change to a beautiful green shade as they age.
Use lime to intensify the deep colors of the flowers. Flower color is affected by pH. For blue flowers, the soil must be more acidic and for pink flowers soil must be more alkaline.
The best time to prune is after it blooms.
