Bigleaf Hydrangea Blooms

Plant this hydrangea variety for bright blooms. Its mop-head flowers bloom green and peach and mature to hot pink. Hardy from zones 5 to 9.

Abracadabra hydrangeas have silky, jet-black stems which contrast beautifully with the pink blooms in the summer. Since bigleaf hydrangeas like this one have shallow roots, they can benefit from 2 to 3 inches of shredded bark mulch.

You can't go wrong with 'Cityline Berlin' hydrangeas. They have thick, glossy, deeply quilted foliage and big, full flower heads. 

This part sun to sun shrub yields long-lasting flowers. It grows well in both landscapes and containers, but if you grow it in a container, it should be planted in the ground in the fall.
