Hydrangea Grandad produces large balls of pure white flowers in tight clusters from summer through autumn. These are complemented with dark green leaves that contrast perfectly with the flowers as it grows to 1 m tall and the same wide. Hydrangea Grandad is a great variety for including in a mixed planting, planting around the base of larger trees, adding to cottage and “white” gardens, maintaining in a container, growing as an informal hedge, or planting around outdoor living areas.

Hydrangea Grandad plant care

Hydrangea Grandad care is simply about getting a few easy things right so the plant thrives. they prefer a sheltered spot in either full sun or part shade. Only in very hot climates should full sun positions be avoided. A well-drained, fertile soil is crucial. Adding organic matter like compost into the soil during planting will help with soil fertility. They prefer a moist soil so consistent watering is essential, especially during dry periods but be careful to avoid overwatering as this can lead to root rot. Applying shrub fertiliser in spring will keep the Hydrangea Grandad plants well-fed for the year. Prune in late winter or early spring and continue to remove spent flowers to encourage further blooming. Applying mulch around the base of the plant helps retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and suppress weeds. Monitor for pests like aphids and diseases like powdery mildew and treat as needed with appropriate measures.
