I've noticed color changes from transplanting seedlings out of my red clay based soil to rich black dirt, the clay soil gave me richer more vibrant colors
The two seedling samples below both have more red color growing in the clay, when moved to rich black dirt they look like different plants
The first seedling grew in the clay for several years before being moved then changed color, the second seedling was moved in the fall after maiden bloom year, I like the red versions better for each
