Hydrangeas

We have selected those hortensia and other hydrangea varieties which grow best and most easily in the Burncoose garden.  These offer the very best in summer displays in a range of colours, throughout July to October, and are normally sold as 2 year old plants
  • Colour-changing mopheads and lacecaps in shades of pink, white and blue from early summer to late autumn and delicate skeletons of flower through the winter.
  • Cones of white from paniculata and bronze and purple foliage from quercifolia.
  • Genus of 80 or more species of deciduous and evergreen shrubs and climbers. They originate from woodland in eastern Asia and North and South America.
  • The larger, showier flowers on flat, domed or conical flower heads are sterile, the smaller, fertile flowers are usually found in the centre. The climbers are suitable for a shady wall or fence and mature specimens provide shelter for insects.
  • Paniculata species attract insects as they have fertile flowers amongst the sterile ones.
