Hydrangea macrophylla & serrata
|
These "big-leaf" Hydrangeas need to be sited correctly for the best blooming.
Prefer rich, well drained soil in part (dappled) shade.
Can tolerate sun in consistently moist soils.
Some varieties have all-white blooms, some have red and green blooms and some have red blooms all season.
Most have a flower color that is soil pH-dependent; blue in acidic soils, pink in alkaline soils.
There will often be rose-pink, violet and lavender-blue flowers all on the same plant.
Bloom on old AND new wood.
Plant in sheltered locations and give them a winter mulch.
