Description How to Grow More Info Delivery

A medium-sized, deciduous shrub, Hydrangea aspera ‘Sargentiana’ is a tough Hydrangea that tolerates more dryness than Mophead types, quickly growing into a spreading shrub with an open habit, clothed in large, dark green, velvety leaves. From July to September, it bears an abundance of large, but dainty, lace-cap flowers composed of small blue to purple inner florets surrounded by white outer florets.

It makes an excellent understory shrub for shade in a woodland setting or at the back of a mixed border. However, it will also cope with sunnier sites providing it receives some shade during the hottest part of the day. RHS Award of Garden Merit. Height: 3m (10ft). Spread: 2m (6.5ft).

Hydrangea aspera 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.

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. Prune after flowering, cutting back faded flower stems to a strong pair of buds and removing misplaced 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.
