Hydrangeas (Hydrangea macrophylla)

Hydrangeas (Hydrangea macrophylla) are among the most spectacular and popular ornamental flowering shrubs in the world. They produce enormous, rounded mophead or flattened lacecap flower clusters in stunning shades of blue, purple, pink, and white — with flower colour influenced by soil pH. They thrive in cool, moist, partially shaded highland conditions, making them ideal for Kenya's higher altitude gardens. Their large, lush blooms make them prized for luxury cut flower arrangements, premium garden borders, and as statement container plants for shaded patios and cool courtyards.
