A groundbreaking Hydrangea serrata variety that introduces a captivating play of colours from spring to autumn. The brilliant tri-colour foliage, in shades of white, green, and pink, kicks off the season before transitioning to a soothing green and white as temperatures rise. Throughout summer, the spectacle continues with lacecap-style flowers emerging from pink buds, unveiling stunning two-toned bright pink blooms with delicate pinky-white centres. As the first variegated of its kind, 'Euphoria Pink' ensures a dazzling display of sparkling foliage that harmonises with the abundance of colourful flowers though we do advise positioning out of the full midday and early afternoon impact of the sun to avoid any potential scorch of the leaves. Notably, in acid soils, the flower hue transforms into a mesmerising two-tone violet-blue with white centres, showcasing the versatile and dynamic nature of this exceptional hydrangea cultivar.
Hydrangeas do not like to dry out. In dry weather, soak the roots with a hose and the plant will usually recover. Remove faded flowerheads in spring after the danger of frosts, cutting back the flowered stems to a strong pair of buds. Take out misplaced or diseased shoots. Mulch young plants with a well-rotted manure or compost in spring. Once established, remove a quarter to a third of the shoots to the base of the plant.
