Hydrangea macrophylla 'Teller's Red'

Hydrangea macrophylla 'Teller's Red' develops into a broadly rounded shrub reaching up to 4 feet high and 5 feet wide, featuring large, medium to dark green foliage. From early summer through early fall, it produces numerous robust stems topped with lacecap flower clusters up to 8 inches across. These feature a flat cluster of creamy to soft-pink centre flowers, encircled by a striking ring of large ray florets in vivid red or pink hues. Flower colour varies with soil pH—acidic conditions enhance red tones, while alkaline soils shift blooms toward pink. Adjust soil acidity using aluminum sulfate or agricultural lime. Its showy flowers are ideal for cutting and floral arrangements.
