I was told at a garden center that this was a black hydrangea and it could tolerate full sun. It gets sun from about 10am on. The blooms were deep purple when I bought it. I’ve been watering when we haven’t gotten much rain. Now the blooms are a washed out color. Is it the ph of the soil ,too much sun, too much watering or something different? Located in Massachusetts.

Moving grill the wheel came off. It’s about 5 years old. Not sure why so much rust. It is out all winter though with a cover. Haven’t been able to see what the underside of the grill looks like yet. I will need someone to remove the propane tank for me first. Thoughts? Anyone have this happen?
