Hydrangea macrophylla 'Dark Angel'
Hydrangea macrophylla 'Dark Angel' is a dramatic lacecap hydrangea prized for its striking near-black foliage and elegant flower heads. The flattened blooms are surrounded by delicate outer florets that range from rich pink to violet-blue, depending on soil conditions, creating a spectacular contrast against the dark leaves.
Flowering from summer into autumn, this eye-catching variety brings bold colour and texture to borders, woodland gardens and patio containers. The dark foliage provides season-long interest, even before the flowers emerge, making it a superb focal point in shaded or partially shaded areas.
Easy to grow and highly ornamental, 'Dark Angel' thrives in moist, well-drained soil and benefits from a sheltered position. Its unique combination of dramatic foliage and colourful lacecap flowers makes it a standout addition to any garden.
