Description

Bring a touch of romance to your summer garden with these exceptional Hydrangea 'Magical Vesuvio' shrubs.

Masses of big, conical-shaped blooms erupt in late summer, first appearing creamy white before evolving to a drawing shade of pink, then pale pink, before reaching a rich reddish shade - go on a journey of colour! Watch as the colours change from the vase of each flower head, stretching upwards, offering you a two-tone effect.

The headline flowers coat plants of dark green ovate leaves, which grow from dark reddish-brown stems. Magnificent feature plants for beds and borders in the garden or when potted up and placed on the patio or decking. Alternatively, plant in a group for stunning, long season flowering displays.

Hardy and easy to grow, with deciduous foliage that drops from autumn, making way for fresh growth come the following spring.

Hydrangeas thrive in neutral to acidic, free-draining soil in a sunny or part-shaded spot. With big flower clusters, filling your summer beds, borders or patio pots with wonderful colour.

Supplied as a pair of bare root plants, ready to plant.

Top Tips
To extend seasonal interest, leave some flowerheads on the plants over winter, where they will look gorgeous covered with frost and they will provide shelter for overwintering wildlife.
Care Information
  • These plants are at their best in moist soil as long as it is well-drained, in a sunny or partially shaded space.
  • The more sun the plant gets, the better the colour. This is a moisture-loving plant, so remember to water it regularly and deeply.
  • This is a hardy plant, but frost can cause damage to young buds, reducing the number of flowers, so protect your plant with fleece if freezing weather is likely.
  • Pruning is generally best carried out in early spring. A general tidy-up is usually all that is needed and consists of removing the dead bloom from each stem, cutting back to the first strong, healthy pair of buds down from the faded flower.
  • As hydrangeas flower on the previous year's growth, in spring cut out one or two of the oldest stems at the base to encourage the production of new, replacement growth that will carry more flowers.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
