The Hydrangea has everything you would expect from an attractive flower: beauty, an exceptionally long blooming period, and surprisingly easy care. The Hydrangea, also known as Hortensia, is available year-round, but from May to November, the variety and quantity are at their peak.
Hydrangea cut flowers are available in an abundance of colors, including all shades of red, pink, and purple, as well as white, green, and blue. Additionally, there are combined colors such as green/red, purple/green, and flowers with colored edges.
The cut flowers retain the color they have when they are cut by the grower. The process of the flowers changing color stops at that point.
There are Hydrangeas with a stem length varying from 30 cm to 80 cm, and this length determines the applications for which the Hydrangea can be used. You can use them in a short length as table decorations during a dinner or in a longer length in a floral arrangement for a wedding or event decoration.
The vase life of a Hydrangea is a significant positive aspect of this beautiful flower, easily lasting 2 to 3 weeks. It is crucial that the Hydrangea always has enough fresh cold water with the right dose of cut flower food dissolved in it. When selling Hydrangeas to your customers in the store, it is important to always provide this food with the flowers. Another tip worth mentioning: avoid placing the Hydrangea in direct sunlight or near a heater.
