chrisjpainter Posted May 24, 2022 Report Share Posted May 24, 2022 Anyone got any suggestions? My plant ID app says Green Hellebore - Helleborus viridis - but I'm not convinced. The leaves seem too broad and I don't think it's flowered yet, which'd rule that. Looks Helleborean, but any other ideas welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyboy1950 Posted May 24, 2022 Report Share Posted May 24, 2022 I did think Hydrangea as they come with large round flower clusters in white, pink and blue. Mine has serrated edge leaves and the flower buds are only just coming. FB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyboy1950 Posted May 24, 2022 Report Share Posted May 24, 2022 I you want to turn a pink or white one to blue, just put an old brillo pad or other piece of wire wool at the base of the stem and the roots will take up the iron and turn the plant blue.

chrisjpainter Posted May 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2022 I can see the thinking behind Hydrangea, but the face of the leaves is smooth and waxy, not wrinkled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
