Three beautiful Mophead Hydrangeas which will explode with a profusion of magically-coloured flower heads all summer that grow to 20cm (8in) across! The ' Magical’ series are abundantly flowering, compact, multi-stemmed Hydrangeas with wonderfully colourful flowers. Very easy to grow, these fully-hardy Hydrangeas thrive in moist soil in semi shade (or sun with shade during the hottest part of the day). They provide the perfect foil for perennials (particularly alliums) & annual bedding, & are equally at home in a pot on your patio or balcony & they’re wonderful cut flowers for vases or bouquets. The faded flowers also look good when left on the plants over winter & are ideal for drying too. Supplied as a pair of established plants in 14cm pots, one each of:‘ Magical Pink Ruby’ – Spectacular, luxurious blooms in shades of intense pink & red that fade to green in autumn.‘ Magical Allegretto’ – stunning vibrant red flowers that fade to green.‘ Magical Amazone’
- Bubblegum pink flowers with a hint of green fading to violet & pale green as they age. Care Just plant in position, water well, & add some fertiliser
- they’ll burst into growth & flower profusely all summer! This plant is at its best in a most soil as long as it is well drained, in sun or partial shade. The more sun the plant gets, the better the flower colour. A moisture-loving plant, remember to water regularly & deeply. Hardy in the UK, frost can cause a lot of damage to young buds, reducing the number of flowers, so it’s advisable to protect your plant with fleece if freezing weather is likely. Pruning is generally best carried out early spring. A general tidy up is usually all that is needed & consists of removing the dead bloom from each stem, cutting back to the first strong, healthy pair of buds down from the faded flower. As these Hydrangeas flower on the current season’s growth, cut out 1 or 2 of the oldest stems, in spring, at the base to encourage the production of new, replacement growth that will carry more flowers.
