Most hydrangea are deciduous, which means that they will lose some or all of their leaves in Winter and will reshoot in Spring.
We often cut them back to 5-10cm in the cold dormant months of the year.

Pale pink  to salmong pink flowers in neutral to alkaline soils.

Vibrant green seratted foliage.

Adding dolomite or a light touch of lime to your soil will help keeping them pink. 

To get soft blue flowers, increase your soils acidic levels.

There are many pages online on how to bring out the pinks, reds and blues of your hydrangea  :- )

For best growth, please keep out the hot afternoon sun in the hot months

Important Information

The Acid levels in the soil will help determine the flower colour of this hydrangea variety.

To bring out the blues, lilacs and purples, please add lime(carefully) or for a more relaxed attempt please use of dolomite . 

Neutral to alkaline soils bring out the reds and pinks. 

Acidic ph levels will help to bring oout the blue tones. 

This need to be done before blooms form.

Or you can just simply plant them straight into the soil and just let the natural soil ph levels determine colours.
