Hydrangea La Marne
(macrophylla) E. Moullière, 1917. A Belle-Epoque variety. Large globes of mauve-pink or cobalt-blue frilly blossoms appear from July to October on this compact plant. Even when dried the flowers are a true pleasure, turning to soft pistachio-green or old rose.

Part Shade / Sun Use
In shrubberies, flowering hedges or containers.
Planting
In acid, non-chalky soil. Dig a hole three times the size of the root ball. Remove the plant from its container and thoroughly soak the root ball. Half-fill the hole with a mixture of 2/3 acid compost and 1/3 garden soil enriched with manure. Place the plant (not too deeply) in the hole and continue filling around the root ball. Water well after planting.
Maintenance
Add a specialised fertiliser during the spring. At the end of the winter, prune limbs that flowered the previous season. Water frequently while plants are blooming.
