Blooms on old wood, do not prune. Remove only spent flowers and dead, damaged or unsightly wood. All hydrangea naturally undergo some colour change to their flowers as they age. Adjusting the pH balance of the soil (adding aluminium sulphate) can change the flower colour from pink to red in this cultivar. Most cultivars thrive in full sun to partial shade as long as they have adequate moisture and a rich, well-drained soil. Note that when grown in a container, it may not perform exactly as indicated on the tag - this is to be expected. Also note that when growing plants in outdoor containers and baskets, they may require more frequent waterings than they would in the yard or garden. Be aware that in our climate, most plants cannot be expected to survive the winter if left in containers outdoors, and this plant is no exception. NOTE: Some flowers and plants may be harmful or poisonous to people or pets if touched or ingested. If you require more information before placing an order, please let us know in advance. |
