Hydrangea (Hortensia) Paniculata Pink & Rose

Planting & Care Instructions

Hortensias feature elegant blooms that are ideal for borders, pots, and as stunning cut flowers. They are winter-hardy shrubs and, when planted in suitable conditions, will return and flower yearly.

• Planting time: Plant in autumn, from September to December. Hortensias generally bloom from June to September, providing beautiful summer color.
• Position & soil: Choose a position in part shade to full sun. Plant in moist, well-drained soil to ensure healthy root development.
• Planting depth & spacing: Dig a hole wide enough for the root system. Plant approximately 5–8 cm deep and space the plants 80–120 cm apart to allow them enough room to spread.
• Watering: Water once after planting to settle the soil well. During active growth, keep the soil just lightly moist, but avoid waterlogging.
• Growing in containers: Use large pots with drainage holes and a moist, well-drained potting mix. Container-grown hortensias may need more frequent watering during the blooming season.
• After flowering: You can leave the faded blooms on the plant through winter to provide frost protection for new buds, or trim them back depending on the variety's specific pruning needs.
• Returning each year: Because they are winter-hardy, hortensias will return yearly. With proper care and suitable conditions, they will grow into robust shrubs with abundant flowers each season.
