Hydrangea macrophylla 'Nightingale'

Hydrangea 'Nightingale' is an exceptional lacecap hydrangea renowned for its striking deep blue flower heads and long-lasting seasonal display. Flowering throughout summer and autumn, its elegant flat blooms create a beautiful contrast against the lush green foliage, making it a standout feature in shaded garden settings.

Growing to approximately 1.5m high and 1.5m wide, this compact, rounded shrub is free-flowering and naturally tidy in habit. Its manageable size makes it ideal for garden borders, feature plantings, containers, and cottage garden designs, while its blooms are also highly valued for cut flower arrangements.

'Nightingale' thrives in moist, well-drained soil and performs best in part shade or sheltered positions where its foliage and flowers are protected from harsh afternoon sun. Hardy and reliable, it provides vibrant colour and structure throughout the growing season.
