Hydrangeas

Hydrangeas

Hydrangeas are a beloved genus of flowering plants renowned for their lush, voluminous blooms and versatile growing habits. Native to Asia and the Americas, they have captivated gardeners and horticulturists worldwide with their ability to adapt to various climates and soil conditions. Hydrangeas offer a delightful complement to rhododendrons, adding vibrant colours and textures extending the colour, flowering season, and interest of gardens.
Hydrangea macrophylla: Also known as bigleaf hydrangea, this species is distinguished by its large, round flower heads, which can be either mophead or lacecap in form.
Hydrangea paniculata: Panicle hydrangeas are known for their cone-shaped flower clusters that start as white and gradually turn pink as they age. They are hardy and can thrive in full sun, making them a great choice for a variety of garden settings
Hydrangea arborescens: Commonly called smooth hydrangea, this species features large, dome-shaped flower heads that are typically white or light green. They are particularly resilient and can tolerate a range of soil types and light conditions.
Hydrangea quercifolia: Oakleaf hydrangeas are notable for their oak-shaped leaves, which provide stunning autumn colour. Their white, pyramidal flower clusters turn pink as they mature, adding visual interest throughout the growing season.
