Hydrangeas are one of the trendiest plants to emerge on the garden scene in the last few years, with a great range of flower size and colour options available.
- Hydrangeas look incredible in the garden, and the flowers can last a long time if dried, dyed and used in vases indoors.
- As they are emerging from their winter dormancy, this is one of the best times to select your favourite type of hydrangeas.
- The Endless Summer range of hydrangeas, introduced by Flemings Nurseries a few years back, are very special.
- Bloomstruck is an unusual variety with purple-red stems and large flowers of either purple-blue, rose-pink or mauve. There is even a lacecap form now available.
- You can prune the flowers and bring them into the house in a vase – new flowers will be produced. When it comes to the Endless Summer range, you should be picking the flowers through the summer months.
- Garden Express has a special offer on hydrangeas for viewers of The Garden Gurus – these plants ina 200mm pot would normally cost $35, but you can get them for just $30.
- Garden Express will deliver the plants direct to your door.
