Many areas of the world are suitable for the growing of Hydrangeas.Have a look around your neighbourhood and note what are the colour/s of the flowers of these plants during spring and summer. Usually these are being grown in part or light shade.
If the flowers are blueish then the soils are acidic, if they are pinkish then the soils are alkaline. If the flowers are white, well you have no idea what the soil is like, because white hydrangeas are always white....
This by the way, is in direct contrast to store bought PH kits where pink indicates acidic soil, and blue indicates alkaline soils.
The only thing you have to watch is the fact that keen gardeners may have put in soil additives to change the colour of their plants, just to confuse you.

My 'Endless Summer' hydrangeas are pink, as my soil is quite alkaline. Where I bought them, they encouraged me to put additives in the soil to make the flowers blue. Why? The pink is fine with me!
Because blue used to be the 'accepted' colour for Hydrangeas. You can still buy 'Hydrangea blueing agent' at many nurseries and garden stores.
Ok but what about the Green colored ones?
Btw nice tip I never would have realize it on my own.
Just like the white ones stay white, the green ones stay green no matter what the ph level of the soil.
But isn't it amazing how things are right in front of our faces yet we do not notice them until someone else points them out to us.
