Hydrangea macrophylla 'Blacksteel Pink'
Hydrangea 'Blacksteel Pink' is a striking deciduous shrub producing large, rounded mophead flowers in vivid deep pink to magenta shades. The individual florets often show fresh green tones towards their centres, creating an attractive two-tone effect as the flower heads develop.
Flowering throughout summer, 'Blacksteel Pink' creates a bold display above lush dark green foliage. Its distinctive dark, almost black stems provide dramatic contrast with the brightly coloured flowers and add further structural interest to the plant.
Ideal for mixed borders, feature planting and large patio containers, this compact Hydrangea performs best in moist but well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. It flowers predominantly on old wood, so pruning should be kept light to preserve the following season's flower buds.
