Read detailed description :

The first Hydrangea with naturally blooming pink and blue flowers on the same plant. Very rustic, the round flowers are 15-20cm in diameter, and will repeat from July to October (blooming on the young shoots and the older stems). A compact and vigorous plant, larger in width than height. Superb in large and small flowerbeds, isolated or in containers. Appreciates the half shade (sun in the morning) and a sheltered zone, in a relatively neutral and fertile soil. If planted in an acid, alumina-rich, or heathland soil, the flowers may turn blue. On the other hand, too much chalk may turn them pink.
