🌸 Blossom Splendor in Blue: The potted hydrangea delights with intensely blue flowers that shine particularly brightly in the sun – an elegant eye-catcher for the garden, balcony, or terrace. ☀️ Location & Care: Ideally, a bright to semi-shaded location, sheltered from the wind and with regular watering, as hydrangeas need a lot of water, especially in summer. 🌿 Nutrient-rich Soil: Prefers humus-rich, slightly acidic soil – a slight lime content is tolerated. Nitrogen-rich fertilization promotes healthy growth. 🌼 Hardy & Long-lasting: With light winter protection, the hydrangea survives the cold season and reliably sprouts again the following year. ✂️ Pruning in Winter: A vigorous cut in winter promotes flower formation for the next season – only lightly prune outside this time. The blue potted hydrangea (Hydrangea) is a classic among garden and balcony plants, bringing color and elegance to any home with its lush, round flower clusters. With a growth height of up to 35 cm, it is perfect for beds, planters, terraces, or as a table decoration outdoors. The plant prefers a bright, semi-shaded location, protected from strong winds. The sunnier the location, the more intensely the blue flowers shine – making it a real highlight in any garden. The soil should be nutrient-rich, deep, and slightly acidic. Regular watering is important to avoid drought stress, as hydrangeas need a lot of water, especially in summer. Care includes nitrogen-rich fertilization during the growing season, while phosphorus should be given sparingly. The ideal pruning is done in winter: a vigorous cut promotes abundant flowering in the coming year, while outside the winter season, a light shaping cut is sufficient. The hydrangea is hardy and survives the cold season with light winter protection (e.g., fleece or leaves). This way, you can enjoy the blossom splendor year after year. – Botanical Name: Hydrangea macrophylla – German Name: Hortensie – Color: Blue – Height: Up to approx. 35 cm – Location: Bright to semi-shaded, wind-protected – Soil: Nutrient-rich, humus-rich, slightly acidic – Water Requirement: High, water regularly
