Description

The Hortensia or Hydrangea paniculata 'Burgundy Lace' is an accommodating bush, tolerant of sun, slightly chalky and occasionally dry soils. It also has delightful flowering in elongated, medium-sized panicles with changing tones. Each small flower blooms in white-cream, gradually turning pale pink and then tinged with pink-violet and burgundy, while the foliage turns yellow in autumn. The combination gives this beautiful hydrangea a multicoloured and lively bouquet-like appearance, decorative from summer to frost. This fast-growing variety is easily contained by pruning and also flowers on new growth. It is therefore suitable for large flowering hedges as well as small gardens.

 

The Hydrangea paniculata, also known as Mountain Hydrangea, is a species belonging to the family of hydrangeas native to deciduous forests in China and Japan, particularly hardy. The 'Burgundy Lace' variety, introduced in 1975, is quite spectacular and highly appreciated for its colourful and abundant long-lasting flowering. The bush has a free, large rounded habit, quickly reaching a height of 2.50 m (8 ft 2 in) and a width of 2 m (6 ft 7 in), sometimes much more if conditions are suitable. From the end of June, it blooms on both new and one-year-old wood with elegant, loose, conical panicles measuring 15 to 20 cm (5.9 to 7.9 in) in length. They consist of a cloud of simple sterile florets carried by long pedicels, changing from white to purple in autumn when exposed to sunlight. This flower heads gracefully curves with the youngest branches. 'Burgundy Lace' has a spreading growth and branches covered with dark green ovate leaves, 15 cm (5.9 in) long and 7 cm (2.8 in) wide, carried by red petioles. They turn yellow in autumn before disappearing in winter.

 

The Hydrangea paniculata stands out from its cousin, the hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla), due to its good tolerance to sun, sea spray, and relative drought. Planted in any good garden soil and avoiding excessive limestone, the Hydrangea paniculata 'Burgundy Lace' shows rapid growth. It is a very hardy variety that can be planted alone, in a hedge or in a border, or in a light wood, mixed with other hydrangeas and perpetual roses to play with contrasts and shapes. You can also associate it with grasses like Miscanthus, Panicum virgatum Squaw, and Stipa.

Planting and care

The Hydrangea paniculata Burgundy Lace is not demanding on the nature of the soil, as long as it is not too heavy and not too chalky. It requires a sunny exposure that is not scorching, or partially shaded. When planting, place it in deeply worked soil. A good base fertiliser will promote the establishment of your plant and nourish it without the risk of burning. If your soil tends to be dry, mix our water retainer, stockosorb, with the soil when filling the planting hole and provide a surface watering basin.

At the end of summer, we advise you not to cut the dry panicles, which will protect the terminal shoots of the branches in winter. You should cut all the dry flowers at the end of February or at the first signs of good weather. Their growth in spring is quite late.

Paniculate Hydrangea: These shrubby hydrangeas with elongated flower heads are drought-resistant and easily establish themselves even in non-acidic soil. They bloom generously from June until the first frost. When planted in the sun, their flower heads change colour in autumn.

The Hydrangea paniculata Burgundy Lace should be pruned in late winter to produce more flower heads. Except when intentionally limiting the size of a bush that has become too large, care should be taken not to remove the branches older than 2 years, as this would compromise the plant's development.
