Evergreen and Alternative Hydrangeas

For gardeners wanting year-round greenery as well as flowers, consider the Dichroa Blue Stars (Evergreen Hydrangea). Unlike traditional hydrangeas, this evergreen variety ensures your garden stays lush and vibrant, even in winter. It boasts beautiful blue flower clusters, making it a great alternative to the typical “bunnings hydrangea” selection.

Tips for Growing Healthy Hydrangeas

To enjoy spectacular blooms, plant your hydrangeas in well-drained, humus-rich soil where they’ll receive morning sun and some afternoon shade. Regular watering during dry spells, especially in their first year, is essential. Pruning dead wood and faded blooms helps promote vigorous growth and more abundant flowers the following season.

Feed with a slow-release fertiliser in spring, and adjust soil pH with lime or hydrangea-specific products to influence flower colour, especially for pink and blue varieties.
