Description

Hydrangea aspera villosa

Hydrangea villosa is a deciduous shrub admired for its velvety leaves and large, flat lacecap flowers in shades of lilac and pink. This variety adds charm to shaded borders and cottage-style gardens, creating a gentle display through the summer months.

Mulch around the base to help retain soil moisture and regulate temperature.
Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape
For best colour, check soil pH—acidic soils bring cooler blue-lavender tones, while alkaline soils produce pinkish hues.

Choisya ternata

Mexican Orange Blossom is so named as it's flowers are of a similar nature and scent to an orange tree! The foliage is a mid to light green and is covered with masses of scented white flowers through Spring and Summer. This attractive shrub will grow to approx. 1.5 - 2m, but is happy to be clipped to suit. As a result it can be also used as a hedge or screen. It is best grown in full sun or part shade and is reasonably frost tolerant.
