Hydrangea Macrophylla Pink is a classic garden favourite, celebrated for its generous summer blooms and ability to adapt to both containers and flower beds. This compact, mophead hydrangea variety is known for its rounded clusters of flowers, ranging from light to rich pink, depending on the soil pH and nutrient levels particularly aluminium availability and alkalinity. It offers reliable colour and structure throughout the summer months and brings long-lasting beauty to any outdoor space.
The plant is grown in a 3-litre nursery pot, and is fully established, making it easy to transplant into your preferred garden location. Whether you’re designing a formal border, creating a pot display for a patio, or simply adding low-maintenance interest to a shaded corner, this hydrangea will offer colour, shape, and pollinator-friendly blossoms.
Hydrangeas are deciduous shrubs, meaning they drop their leaves in winter and burst back to life each spring. The Macrophylla variety is distinguished by its broad leaves and bold flower heads. During its blooming season from July to August, this plant provides not only colour but also wildlife value, attracting bees and other pollinators to the garden.
Each plant is supplied in a 3-litre nursery pot, and is typically:
-
Height (including pot): 25–40cm on arrival
-
Spread at maturity: 80–100cm
-
Flower head size: 15–20cm diameter when in bloom
This compact variety is ideal for container growing, smaller borders, or accent planting in patio areas. It holds its shape well and can be trimmed lightly to maintain a neat appearance. Because of its tidy size and long flowering period, it’s especially useful in gardens with limited space, urban courtyards, or balcony planters. Pair it with ornamental grasses or seasonal annuals for a mixed display that evolves throughout the seasons.
