Hydrangea macrophylla 'Bavaria'

Noteworthy for its unique bicolour blooms and long flowering time, Hydrangea macrophylla ‘Bavaria’ is bound to impress. From mid summer onwards, huge mophead flower clusters form at the end of every branch, creating a dense, bright display. The blooms are a dreamy shade of lavender blue, each petal is frosted with a contrasting white edge. The blooms remain consistent throughout the summer months, as they fade in autumn the leaves develop a mottling or red blotches before falling. Perfect for brightening up a dull spot, this Hydrangea will be happiest in a partially shaded area of the garden in soil which stays cool and moist most of the time. Depending on the acidity of your soil, the blooms can become more mauve or pink over time. Height and spread: 1.2m (4’).

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

The blue flowers will take on a pink hue as they fade through autumn and may also be affected by alkaline tap water or soil. For the deepest blue flowers right through the season we recommend the use of Hydrangea Colourant
