Red Hydrangea — Bold, Romantic Garden Accent
Red Hydrangeas are rare, eye-catching beauties that bring rich, ruby red blooms to your landscape. Unlike typical blues or pinks, this mophead stuns with deep crimson tones — a striking centerpiece in beds, borders, or containers.

FAQ's
Will the flowers stay red?
Yes, red hydrangeas keep their color best in neutral to slightly alkaline soil. In acidic soil, they may turn pink or purple.
Does it bloom on old or new wood?
Most red hydrangeas bloom on old wood, so prune only after flowering to avoid cutting off next year’s blooms.
Is this a true red flower?
Yes, this variety produces deep red blooms — much darker and richer than typical pink hydrangeas.
Can it grow in containers?
Absolutely! Red Hydrangeas are great for pots, as long as they receive morning sun and good drainage.
Is it good for cut flowers?
Yes — red hydrangeas add a bold pop of color to both fresh and dried arrangements.
