Hydrangea angustipetala 'Golden Crane'

Hydrangea angustipetala 'Golden Crane'

Hydrangea angustipetala 'Golden Crane' is a rare and enchanting deciduous shrub, prized for its elegant lacecap flowers. This unusual hydrangea boasts creamy-white blooms with a delightful lemony fragrance, a unique trait among hydrangeas. The centre of each flowerhead features small, fertile flowers surrounded by larger, showy sterile florets, creating a charming two-tiered effect.

'Golden Crane' typically reaches 1.5 to 2 metres in height and spread, making it suitable for mixed borders or as a stand-alone specimen. It flowers from late spring to early summer, with the blooms complemented by dark green, oval leaves. This hydrangea prefers partial shade and thrives in moist, well-drained soil rich in organic matter.

It's hardier than many hydrangeas, tolerating temperatures down to -15°C. For best results, mulch annually and prune lightly after flowering. 'Golden Crane' is an excellent choice for gardeners seeking something different, offering both visual appeal and a delightful scent to the British garden.

It has to rank amongst the best Hydrangeas available at present and is a must for every garden.
