JAPANESE MOUNTAIN HYDRANGEAS are hale and hardy. Bud hardy yet very feminine. High maintenance? Not these ladies. In 10 years they have bloomed every year for everyone we have planted. They remain dormant longer and avoid late frosts. Generally they are somewhat smaller than the H. macrophylla.
H. serrata 'Blue Deckle'
A shrub hardly larger than 4-5 ft, the flower heads are tightly packed, the petals serrated. In shape close to a H. macrophylla. flowering-plants vary from light blue to light pink. Blue however more likely depending on the acid level in your soil.
A charming, delicate demeanor. Like their 'French' cousins they like good drainage, good soil and water and fertilizer. But you don't have to hover over them. Just plant them well to begin with and water once a week.
Give them acidity, (sulphur) for better blues and alkalinity, (lime) for more pinks. Don't trim them. Just cut yourself some bouquets. Do yourself a favor...grow some of these. You don't have 15 years to waste.
Zone 6-10.
