Hydrangea 'White Ball'
Goodness gracious, great balls of blooms! This is one impressive Hydrangea. The white blooms open abundantly against lush, mid green foliage. A great plant for a formal setting, cottage garden or anywhere you need flowers that is out of afternoon sun. You could even grow them in a container.
This marvellous shrub has lush green foliage, that forms nice mounds 80-120cm high and wide. The flowers open on new season growth, so Hydrangea ‘White Ball’ can be easily pruned to the bottom two buds after flowering, in late winter.
Hydrangeas grow best when planted in a sheltered position of the garden where the roots are cool and moist. If you add plenty of organic matter to the soil and you will be rewarded with masses of stunning blooms.
Hydrangea flowers are good for picking. To help make the flowers last longer, you could bring a bucket of water out with you to the garden, so you can plunge them in as soon as you have cut the stem. Once you are inside, cut them again and hold them in hot, boiled water for 30 seconds before arranging in a vase.
