Product description
Hydrangea 'Wim's Red' is a bushy deciduous shrub with toothed green leaves. They develop strong red-tinted branching stems that grow to around 30cm tall, the stems develop cone shaped flower clusters in spring that initally present as white. As the seasons progress into summer the colour is more pink, before becoming a more mature wine-red colour in Autumn.
A hardy plant, 'Wims Red' is suited to almost any soil, provided it is most and well-drained. It can be placed in partial shade but does equally well in full sun, ideal as a low-growing ground cover, or to fill a gap in a colourful border.

Depending on seasonality, deciduous plants may be supplied in their dormant state and without leaves. Plants may also be pruned back, lower than stated heights, to encourage new growth.

Instructions
Top Tip
Protect hydrangeas in winter by adding a thick layer of mulch around the base to insulate the roots. In colder climates, cover the plant with burlap or a frost blanket to shield it from freezing temperatures and harsh winds.
How to Water
Water hydrangeas deeply, keeping the soil consistently moist, especially during dry periods. Avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal issues. Water at the base early in the morning or late in the evening, and mulch to help retain moisture.
How to Plant
Choose a spot with morning sun and afternoon shade, and well-draining, moist soil. Dig a hole twice as wide and just as deep as the root ball. Place the plant, backfill with soil, firm gently, and water well. Mulch around the base to retain moisture.
