Voluptuous, bright pink, mophead blooms contrast beautifully with the dark, green-black foliage of this eye-catching variety. The flowers are borne from late spring to autumn, providing a long season of interest and plenty of summer colour. Hydrangea macrophylla x serrata 'After Midnight' is always impressive as an individual specimen in a patio pot of sunny border. For maximum impact try planting it en masse to create breath-taking ground cover! Height and spread: 120cm (48").
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.

Water regularly until plants are fully established. Leave the faded hydrangea flower heads in place until the new buds swell in spring to protect the delicate buds from frost damage. In early spring, dead head the old flowers, cutting them back to a pair of healthy buds just below.
In late winter or early spring remove one or two of the oldest stems to the base. This will encourage the development of new, replacement shoots and keep the shrub productive.
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.
