Hydrangea Mathilda Gutges

Hydrangea Mathilda Gutges Details

Hydrangea macrophylla Mathilda Gutches features large, blue flower heads through summer and autumn. On alkaline soils the colouring will lighten with pink shades developing. The flowers sit perfectly with the lush, dark green foliage. It grows as a multi-stemmed, deciduous shrub with a rounded form to about 1.2 m tall and the same wide and can be trimmed as necessary. Best results with this variety are achieved when it is grown in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained, sheltered site with a slightly acidic soil. It is hardy to cool climates, frost, and short periods of dry. Hydrangea Mathilda Gutches is a great variety for adding to a mixed planting, maintaining in a container, growing as an informal hedge, including in a cottage garden, or for planting around an outdoor living area.
