hydrangea £19.99
Position: partial shadeSoil: moist, well-drained, moderately fertile, humus-rich soilRate of growth: fast-growing Flowering period: June to October Flower colour: rich pinkHardiness: fully hardyA recently introduced cultivar that produces the much-loved flower clusters throughout summer and autumn, but these are carried on lustrous, near-black stems. This gives the plant a unique and attractive twist. The deep pink flowers of ‘Zambia’ appear a lime green colour when they are first emerging, and both the young and more mature flowers contrast really well with its steely coloured stems. A very welcome addition to the family.Garden care: Leave the old flower heads in place through the winter.
