Many thanks for the response. Greatly appreciated. I will buy ericaceous compost very soon.

If its in a pot, go and buy a bag of ericaceous compost and repot into that - coffee grounds have a mildly acidifying effect, but as its in a pot, its far easier to put it in acidic compost.

You can also buy a little tub of 'Hydrangea colourant' which contains what they need to be blue.
