## Description

&#xA0;Hydrangea aspera orginate from the Himalayas, west and central China, Taiwan, Sumatra and Java and were introduced to the Uk in 1908 by Ernest Wilson.&#xA0; Hot Chocolate is an exciting and new cultivar with domed, lace cap flowers that cover a spectrum of colour from pale, dusky pink to deep blue mauve, with an almost&#xA0;iridescent blue haze at dusk.&#xA0; Flowers are produced from June to September and will be the same colours in any soil.&#xA0; A large shrub, but more compact than aspera, with felted stems and large, pointed, leaves with a chocolate brown felted reverse, that turn to amber and golden hues in autumn.&#xA0;&#xA0;However you perceive it, the fact it makes a stunning statement cannot be deined! &#xA0;&#xA0; A wonderful accent plant in the borders or in large containers. In containers use a good quality John Innes compost as this plant will be there a long time and peaty types of compost eventually degrade, become too packed and choke the roots. Ensure you feed regularly as a hungry plant is a poor performer. We recommend Osmoscote pro 8-9 month applied in the early spring. One application gives all the nutrients the plant requires for the whole year. John Innes is a soils based compost. This plant flowers on two year old wood so do not prune until after it has flowered!
