You're not concerned about those nails being in your soil? Let's say you want to plant something else in that area in the future, are you (or whomever owns the house then) going to remember those nails are in there?

One of the ways to change the hydrangeas flowers from pink to blue is to treat the soil with Iron shavings or rusty nails.
I have 3 hydrangeas in pots. The flowers have been pink the last few years. I treated 2 of the plants with iron filings this past summer. Waiting to see if I get some blue flower on these plants. I take in these plants during the winter cold snaps and did not mark which plants I treated. So this spring will be a surprise which ones will have blue flower.
