Hydrangea macrophylla[ Pot Size: 12'' | Height: 20" - 24" ]
The White Adore Hydrangea features stunning clusters of colorful flowers that contrast nicely with its large dark green leaves. Hydrangeas bloom in the summertime, but this hydrangea has been cultivated in a greenhouse and forced to bloom early, making it a popular gift in other seasons. A nice pop of color for spaces with bright indirect sunlight, the White Adore Hydrangea prefers its soil to be consistently moist but not soggy.

Plant Care Guide
Light
Bright indirect sunlight is best. Direct sunbeams may scorch the leaves.
Water
Keep the soil damp but not soggy, so check several times a week. Do not mist the leaves as this may cause powdery mildew to form. To improve humidity, set on a tray of pebbles and water.
Level of Care
Needs a little extra care. Just be sure the plant is in bright indirect sunlight and never let the soil dry out. Prune off expired blooms.
Air Purifying
Hydrangeas remove toxins that can build up in indoor spaces. A general rule of thumb is 1 medium houseplant per 100 square feet of space effectively cleans the air we breathe.
Fertilizer
Fertilizer not needed if growing as a seasonal houseplant. If attempting outside, feed once a year with slow-release pellets.
Temperature
Prefers cooler temperatures, ideally around 65-75°F. Cool temperatures will also make the blooms last longer. If grown outdoors, plant may come back year after year depending on the severity of winter.
Soil
Alkaline soils produce pink or purple flowers, neutral soils produce pale cream blooms, and acidic soils result in blue.
Pruning & Propagation
Prune expired blooms to maintain appearance. Plant is often tossed out after blooming because getting it to flower again can be challenging and requires temperatures 40-50°F from November to January. Propagation from stem cuttings in the fall is possible, but not usually successful.
Pet Friendly
Sorry! All parts of hydrangeas are toxic if consumed by cats and dogs.
