Burncoose are fantastic for hydranngeas Victoria - have a browse. I'm a fan of the paniculatas too - have vanilla fraise and limelight. Plus love Annabelle arborescans too
Hi .... it hasn't changed colour with me, but I'm not sure really.
Larch cottage is just wonderful .... the garden is just so quirky and the plants are all great quality. My sister lives in the north of England and I live in the south of Scotland so we often meet up there for a day out / lunch ( fab cakes by the way!!)
Hope you get there .... worth booking a table for lunch on the balcony ... go when the wisteria is flowering.

Thanks everyone who contributed Good to have your experience and opinions
I've decided on the macrophylla Madame Mouillere for the lawn edge location, not that I've made the lawn yet It seems the right height and level of simplicity...
For the back of the border colour changing presence I'm going for a quercifolia Amethyst instead of Wim's Red.
Lyn there is a very good nursery in Kenton which sells very good sized and reasonably priced hydrangeas, bought 2 there last year. I am a recent convert but only really to paniculatas

Oh thanks for the suggestion chicky,
I have an offer code for Burncoose until the end of the month that I nearly forgot about.
Yes, I've been looking at Annabelle also... I want something that's a solid cream or white for one location...
Hi VS,
I bought Hydrangea aspera 'The Ditch' from Larch Cottage 3 years ago .... and it just gets lovelier each year.
If you get a chance to visit it is just a sensational place .... make sure you have lots of room in the boot for all the plants you'll want to buy!

Hi Bee witched, sorry, didn't see your post yesterday, went to bed early
That is a very nice hydrangea, very little info on the net with just a brief look - do you know if the colour is affected by soil type?
