Description
Hydrangea arborescens Candybelle® Sorbet ('Hyso22') is a new variety of hydrangea from the Candybelle collection, ideal for a terrace or a small garden. Not very tall, but not devoid of a certain majesty, this bush has sturdy stems that carry its large flowers without weakening and is adorned with bright green foliage. Its large frothy inflorescences in shades of strawberry pink are decorative throughout the summer. The bush remains beautiful, even when soaked with rain. A wonderful hydrangea, as resplendent as it is easy to grow!
Hydrangea arborescens, also known as Smooth Hydrangea, belongs to the large Hydrangeaceae family. This botanical species native to the Southeastern United States is less demanding in terms of shade and soil than its Asian counterparts, and therefore very easy to grow in any moist and supple soil. It has given rise to numerous hybrid varieties that prove to be excellent garden shrubs.
Hydrangea arborescens Candybelle® Sorbet ('Hyso22') is a hardy plant that reliably blooms even after cold winters, on the new shoots of the current year. It can be planted in colder regions, as it renews its flower buds throughout the summer and is not afraid of spring frosts. It develops sturdy and ramified stems, forming a bush about 1m (3ft) tall and 90cm (35in) wide, a perfectly adapted size for cultivation in pots or containers. Flowering begins in early July and continues until September. It takes the form of large globular inflorescences called corymbs, which can measure up to 20cm (8in) in diameter. Each one is made up of numerous small flowers called florets. Each floret has 3 to 4 sepals that are pink-red in colour, lightening over time. The foliage consists of beautiful single leaves, 10 to 12cm (4 to 5in) long, wide and ovate, with attractive wavy edges, in a vibrant green colour. The leaves are deciduous, turning yellow before falling in autumn. Hydrangeas can live for more than 50 years.
If you like small, floriferous, robust hydrangeas that are easy to grow in any good garden soil, Candybelle Sorbet is the one for you! If your decor is more contemporary, or if you have a small city garden, this moderately sized shrub will add a romantic and natural touch. Candybelle Sorbet adds life to any partially shaded area, on a terrace or in the garden, whether placed individually, in a small hedge, or in a group of 3 plants. Plant a small border of boxwood or Lonicera nitida 'Elegant' with evergreen foliage, to enhance its large flowers. It can also be surrounded by hellebores and perennial fuchsias that complete the range of colours. Finally, cut its flowers to make charming bouquets!

Planting and care
It requires a sunny or lightly shaded location, and ordinary garden soil that is deep, loose, enriched with compost, not excessively chalky or slightly acidic, and does not dry out too much in summer. Plant in deeply worked soil. A good base fertiliser (horn or dehydrated blood) will promote the establishment of your plant and nourish it without the risk of burning. The plant is highly perpetual, so you can regularly remove faded flowers in summer.
At the end of summer, leave the large dry umbels on the plant as they will protect the terminal shoots in winter. Remove the dried flowers after the spring frosts.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).

The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
