Hydrangea Gamechanger Shell Pink

Oh Hydrangeas! The most beautiful of all the dappled light shrubs - each bloom is its own bouquet. Their colors will change based on the soil they are planted in and as the flowers age- the color possibilities are endless with these perennial marvels.

Zillions of tiny lace-cap, filigreed, pale pink flowers bordered by ruffled candy-pink petals that sit perfectly aloft deep green, serrated leaves on this gorgeous, impossibly pretty plant.

Includes three young plants, grown in 2.5” diameter pots

Growing Info

How to Plant	Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball. Fill a little bit of the loose dirt back into the hole and tuck your plant in so the base of the stem is even with the top of the hole. Now fill in the rest of the soil around the roots, give the soft ground around the base of your new plant friend a few solid pats to compress the soil onto the roots, and a long, gentle drink of water
Where to Plant	Find a place with good, well-draining soil that gets morning sun or dappled, indirect light
When to Plant	Avoid the heat of the day when planting — plant in the early morning, late afternoon, or by the light of the moon. Plant outside after your average last frost in the spring
When to Expect Blooms	Sweet, sweet summertime
Care Instructions	Hydrangea's name comes from the word hydro, meaning water. They need consistent moisture. They will let you know right away when they are ready to be watered, because their leaves will go totally limp. Once you give them a good drink, they perk right up
Extra Credit	Prune foliage after first frost, but leave branches that have gone to wood
