Sensational seasonal interest and dramatic displays of flowers make Hydrangea ‘Candybelle Bubblegum’ a worthy addition to garden displays. With tightly packed clusters of tiny pink, fragrant flowers forming into a rounded, dome-like shape, the ovate green foliage and sturdy stems hold a compact shape that looks as though it is covered in floral bubbles.
Adding spectacular bursts of blooms, the pink flowers can be turned to shades of blue in acidic soils, further adding to its striking appearance. A wonderful choice for creating long-lasting interest in garden displays, it holds its wonderful flowers through to autumn which left to dry can then add charm to admire through the winter months. It also makes an excellent cut flower to admire around the home as well.
A wonderful choice for attracting bees and other pollinators into your garden, it is also incredibly versatile. Plant it in pots and containers, in borders, low maintenance gravel gardens and wildlife areas where it will add a touch of cottage garden charm.
To ensure your Hydrangea thrives, plant it in a sunny or partially shaded space in free draining, nutrient-rich soil. Keep it well watered and gently prune it back in spring as the flowers grow on old wood. Leaving the summer flowers on over winter will look great but also protect new growth from the cold.
