Description:

Hydrangeas, also known as hortensias, are ornamental shrubs renowned for their vibrant and lush flowers that brighten gardens from spring through fall. Their beauty and array of colors make them a popular choice for adding color and elegance to any green space.

History and Origin:

Primarily originating from Asia and America, hydrangeas have been cultivated and cherished for centuries in various cultures around the world. Their scientific name, Hydrangea, derives from the Greek "hydor" (water) and "angeion" (vessel), referencing these plants' need for water. Over time, they have undergone hybridization and selection, resulting in a wide variety of species and cultivars.

Care:

Hydrangeas are relatively easy to care for but require certain considerations to thrive and bloom in all their glory. They prefer well-draining soil rich in organic matter. It's important to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged, especially during periods of active growth and flowering. Applying organic mulch around the base of the plant can help retain moisture and control weeds.

Watering:

Regular watering is essential for hydrangeas, especially during the warmer months of the year. It's recommended to water them deeply once or twice a week, depending on the weather conditions and soil moisture levels. It's important to avoid wetting the flowers and leaves during watering, as this can increase the risk of fungal diseases.

Sun and Temperature:

While some hydrangea varieties can tolerate some direct sunlight, they generally prefer locations with indirect light or partial shade, especially in warmer climates. Excessive sun exposure can scorch the leaves and wilt the flowers. As for temperature, hydrangeas are generally hardy, but some species may be sensitive to severe frosts. It's important to protect them during the colder months if you live in an area with harsh winters.

Varied Colors:

Hydrangeas are available in a wide range of colors, including pink, blue, white, purple, and red. If you desire a particular color, please let us know in the comments when placing your order or contact us to verify availability.
