About this plant
Hydrangea
Hydrangeas are shrubs and climbers from East Asia and the Americas. They owe their fame to their large flower heads, in which showy, sterile florets surround or completely cover the small fertile flowers. Hydrangeas like a moist, humus-rich soil and flower in summer, when many other shrubs have finished flowering.
