Hydrangea Paniculata ‘Fire and Ice’ STD

Fire and Ice Panicle Hydrangea STD

An elegant and spectacular plant, ideal for adding a touch of sophistication to your garden. Its large panicles of flowers, which start out bright white, evolve into shades of pink and then deep red as they mature, creating a beautiful contrast. Grafted onto a stem, this cultivar has a slender and structured habit, perfect for creating a focal point in a border or as an isolated plant. It requires regular watering, particularly in dry periods, to maintain good soil moisture. A balanced fertiliser applied in spring will support its growth and generous flowering. This variety is hardy and tolerates cold winters well. However, it is advisable to protect the roots with a layer of mulch to prevent frost damage. Pruning should be carried out in early winter or early spring, before the vegetation restarts. Remove spent flowers and prune back dead or weak stems to encourage healthy growth and optimum flowering.
