Description
This well known mophead Hydrangea has a neat rounded habit that forms an attractive, medium sized specimen. The apple-green buds of Hydrangea macrophylla 'King George' unfurl to reveal rounded domes of deep rosy-pink flowers. On acid soils the flowers take on a striking mauve colour. The long-lasting blooms fade as summer ends to give centre stage to the vibrant autumn foliage in shades of orange and gold. This reliable deciduous shrub makes a magnificent addition to mixed borders and cottage gardens. Height & Spread: 200cm (79").

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

How to Grow
Hydrangea macrophylla prefers a sunny or semi shaded position, with shelter from cold, drying winds. Grow hydrangea plants in any rich fertile, moist soil. Improve the soil prior to planting by adding with plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost, ensuring that it is mixed in thoroughly and deeply. Alternatively plant hydrangea macrophylla in patio containers in soil based compost such as John Innes No. 3.
More Info
Leave the faded hydrangea flower heads in place until the new buds swell in spring to protect the delicate buds from frost damage. Prune after flowering, reducing the stems to restrict their growth to the available space and to improve the shape of the plant. After pruning hydrangeas, apply a mulch of well rotted manure or compost around the base of the plant. Caution: Contact with hydrangea foliage may irritate the skin and eyes and all parts are harmful if eaten.
