Have you ever visited the southern US, Andrewr? If you get the chance make sure to visit one of the older botanical gardens and see these trees. They are very popular because the leaves stay green year round.

Have you tried adding aluminum to the soil ? Here in North Carolina, my soil is naturally acidic, about 5.8 and my hydrangea serrata 'Bluebird' is just alittle more blue than yours. Hope that helps...

It looks alot like my indigofera amblyantha shrubs. They start to bloom in late May and bloom continously until the first November freeze. The only down side, is they are a bit stoloniferous, much to the delight of my friends...lol. Who doesn't love free plants !

Lovely photo, I wasn't aware there was more than one color of cichorium, they would look great planted together.

Can't you water it with something? Or does nothing help to 'blue-ify' it?

I think I suffer from "posh lady gardener" syndrome but I love it's restfulness .lol I love cool colours so clearly it's easy to suffer .As long as there is plenty of lush green I'm happy.

Glad you had a good day Andrew. We fell in love with the beautiful china, the food and catering venue as well as the spectacular garden when we were invited to a Royal household.

What a fabulous honour Andrew! Well done! Seeing you are not allowed to take photos, wouldn't you think they would give you a 'CD of your day with some nice shots of the garden at BP'. I'd happily spend some of my tax on that for you!!
