Hydrangea 'Pink'

Pink Hydrangea

Hydrangea is a beloved garden shrub valued for its large, rounded flower heads in beautiful shades of soft to rich pink. Flowering generously from late spring through summer, it brings bold colour and a lush, romantic feel to shaded garden spaces.

This deciduous shrub features attractive mid-green foliage that provides a full, leafy backdrop to the impressive blooms. It performs especially well in semi-shade positions and is ideal for patio containers, shaded borders, cottage gardens, and entrance plantings.

Well suited to Pretoria and Johannesburg gardens, pink hydrangeas prefer consistent moisture and protection from harsh afternoon sun. With the right care, they reward gardeners with spectacular seasonal displays year after year.
