Pink & Rose: Paniculata Hydrangea: 12cm Plant: Preorder – Shipping: End January to End February
Hydrangea paniculata ‘Pink & Rose’ is a romantic, colour-shifting hydrangea celebrated for its tall, elegant, cone-shaped blooms. The flowers open a soft creamy white in early summer, then gradually blush to pale pink before deepening into warm rose tones as the season progresses. This natural colour transition gives the plant a layered, painterly look that changes beautifully with the months.
Unlike mophead hydrangeas, the paniculata varieties are sun-tolerant, hardy, and reliable, making ‘Pink & Rose’ an excellent choice for gardeners who want high-impact colour with low effort. Its strong, upright stems hold the large blooms proudly, making it a favourite for cut arrangements and dried flowers.
With its graceful shape, long flowering season, and exceptional resilience, Hydrangea paniculata ‘Pink & Rose’ brings sophistication and soft colour to borders, mixed shrub plantings, and sunny garden areas. A truly rewarding shrub that delivers a stunning display from mid-summer well into autumn.

| Top Tips |
Pruning
Prune in late winter before new growth begins. Hydrangea paniculata blooms on new wood, so pruning encourages larger, stronger flower heads. Remove old flower heads and thin out weak or crossing branches. Watering Requires regular, deep watering—especially during the first year or during hot months. Tolerates slightly drier conditions better than mophead hydrangeas, but soil should remain moist, not soggy. Mulching helps retain moisture. Fertilizing Feed in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer. A mid-summer light feed may improve flower colour and size. Avoid excessive nitrogen, as it encourages leafy growth over blooms. Top Tips • Soil: Prefers fertile, well-drained soil. Not as sensitive to pH as mophead hydrangeas, so colour is more predictable. • Sunlight: More sun-tolerant than other hydrangeas, making it suitable for warmer, brighter areas. • Structure: Strong stems help support large flower heads, making it great for cut flowers and landscaping. • Winter Interest: Dried flower heads can be left on through winter for decorative effect. • Low Maintenance: One of the easiest hydrangeas to grow, very hardy and resilient. |
