Question

You and your friend live in different states and plant identical hydrangea bulbs in your garden. When they bloom, you send each other pictures. You notice that even though you bought the exact same kind of plant, your hydrangea flowers are blue and your friend’s are pink! On a hunch, you each measure the pH of your soil and find that your soil is a little acidic and your friend’s is a little basic. Why do you think the flowers have different colors?

Answer 1

Answer:

I think the reason my friend's flower and my flower are different colors is because of the soil.

Explanation:

Sense my friend's soil is pretty basic I have reason to believe that pink is the intended color of the flowers but sense my soil has some trace of acid the plant absorbed that acid along with the water and made it turn blue, so even though we bought the same plant the soil differences caused a change in the plant.

(tbh i'm just spewing stuff based on the context so I hope I helped in some way :/)
