Discover stunning blooms with a unique color transition
The Elizabeth Ashley Hydrangea is a delightful addition to any garden, bringing both beauty and charm. This lovely shrub is the little sister of the Magical Revolution series, sharing the same enchanting characteristics but with its own distinctive flair. The flowers are more uniform in shape and display a warmer tone, gradually transforming from pink or soft blue, depending on soil pH, to a captivating green with a red edge as the season progresses. This unique coloration not only adds interest but also provides an evolving visual experience throughout the blooming season.
Planting this hydrangea in your landscape offers a lush and vibrant aesthetic. Its well-structured blooms are perfect for creating eye-catching arrangements or enhancing mixed borders. Additionally, the adaptability of the Elizabeth Ashley ensures it thrives in various garden settings, making it a versatile option for both novice and seasoned gardeners alike. You'll appreciate how this beautiful shrub can elevate your outdoor space, whether you place it in the front yard or use it as a backdrop for your favorite perennials.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a location that receives partial sun and well-drained soil. Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball and as deep. Gently loosen any tightly bound roots and add a layer of compost to enrich the soil before placing the plant. Spread a layer of mulch around the plant to conserve water, insulate roots, and suppress weeds. Water thoroughly after planting to help establish roots.
2. Watering: Water regularly, especially during dry spells. Aim to keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Deep watering is preferable, encouraging roots to grow deeper into the soil. In hot summer months, more frequent watering may be necessary.
3. Pruning: Elizabeth Ashley blooms on both old and new wood. Remove dead or diseased wood anytime . Pruning is not necessary but can be done after the first flush of blooms.
4. Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced fertilizer in early spring as new growth begins. A slow-release fertilizer works well, promoting healthy foliage and vibrant blooms throughout the growing season. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive leaf growth at the expense of flowers.
