Wednesday, July 23, 1952 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THREE Garden Notes By C. B. CORDY County Extension Agent for Horticulture (Editor's note: This is one of a series of articles on gar dening subjects, prepared for The Mail Tribune by the Jack son county agent for horti culture. They will be carried weekly during the gardening season.) Hydrangeas are now in full bloom and the color of the bloom is causing concern to some gar deners. In some cases slips have been taken from plants which have blue flowers, and when these slips start blooming the flowers are pink. The color of the hydrangea bloom is governed by the pres ence or absence of lime in the soil. Where the soils are high in lime the bloom will be pink. In acid soils the bloom will be blue. This color can be changed artificially to a certain extent. If blue flowers are desired, alu minum sulfate used at the rate of a pound to a square yard will help turn the trick. As most of our soils are high in lime, the aluminum sulfate treatment is not too effective and is not very long lasting. Can Deepen Color If the hydrangeas are nor mally of a light blue color, the color can be deepened by the use of aluminum sulfate. If the blossoms are pink, then instead of trying to turn them blue, bet ter results would be obtained by adding a little lime and increas ing the density of the pink color. Hydrangeas will also respond well to a little commercial fer tilizer and to plenty of water They normally thrive in a well drained, moist soil and while we can't very easily change the drainage of the soil, we can maintain good soil moisture. A handful of ammonium sulfate or three to four handfuls of com plete fertilizer applied around each plant before watering would keep the plants in a good state of vigor. Benjamin Franklin recom mended the turkey as the of ficial U.S. emblem. A bright red, hourglass-shaped spot under the abdomen identi fies the black widow. North America's most venomous spi der. This female's poisonous bite kills about five per cent of her known victims. Severe pains caused by her venom are some- timer mistaken for symptoms of appendicitis.
