Large, domed clusters of bubblegum-pink flowers top the stout stems of this relatively compact hydrangea. A tough, attractive and versatile plant, it is ideal for pots or borders – and the flowerheads could even be cut for the vase.
Garden care: In hot weather, thoroughly soak the plant’s roots when watering to prevent it drying out. Remove faded flowerheads in spring after the danger of frosts, cutting back the flowered stems to a strong pair of buds and take out misplaced or diseased shoots. Once established, remove a quarter to a third of the shoots to the base of the plant. Cutting it back in this way will keep it compact and will also result in a branching, bushier shrub. Mulch young plants with a well-rotted manure or compost in spring.
