Product Description

Hydrangea Macrophylla Cocktail

in 2L Pot, Stunning Clusters of Pink Cream Flowers

A bushy, deciduous shrub that grows to a height of about 1.5 meters, with oval, serrated leaves that turn bronze-green in the spring and dark green as they age. Round flowerheads with white flowers edged with pink that turn creamy-white as they age are produced from summer into early October.

Colours & Soil Acidity

In most species the flowers are white, but in some species (notably H. macrophylla), can be blue, red, pink, light purple, or dark purple. In these species the colour is affected by soil pH. For H. macrophylla and H. serrata cultivars, the flower colour can be determined by the relative acidity of the soil. Hydrangea flowers are blue in acidic soil with a pH of 5.5 or lower. The more alkaline the soil, the pinker the flowers will be.

Weather can influence the color of hydrangea leaves, causing large areas of purple discoloration. Cool weather near the end of the growing season may trigger the plant’s dormancy early, allowing the purple leaf color to show through as the green chlorophyll factories shut down for the season.
