Description
With their colourful clouds of blossoms, hydrangeas are one of the most popular flowering shrubs you can plant in your garden. They are easy to grow in a wide variety of soils, with minimal pruning required to keep them happy and healthy.
In the first section to this celebratory guide to hydrangeas, readers will discover the history of the plant and its cultivation in the unfolding story of the flower. The second chapter focuses on the folklore, legend, symbolism, art and the Victorian language of flowers, including the greek origins of the name 'hydrangeas'.
After journeying through the flower's intriguing past and associations, the next chapter identifies the different types of hydrangeas, from the durable lanarth white to the star-shaped zorro. The final chapter explores practical advice on growing, propagating and caring for flowers in the garden.
