Hydrangea 'Sundae Fraise' is an award-winning introduction from the renowned French breeder Jean Renault. Bred to be smaller and more compact, the flowers are borne on medium-sized cones that open creamy white in late July, becoming increasingly saturated in pink as the flowers age.
By the end of summer, the whole plant is a vision of frothy strawberry stars, which can continue into October.
As a bonus, the flowers can be cut at any time and dried (upside down) for use in winter decorations or left on the plants outside for winter interest.
Awarded a silver medal at the international fair Plantarium in Boskoop, Netherlands, where new varieties are introduced to nurseries and gardening public, this is an easy to grow Hydrangea that is suitable for any garden - plus it's hardy in conditions down to -29C, so a real winner in UK gardens.
Happy in almost any soil type as long as it is kept well watered, 'Sundae Fraise' is best grown in full sun although it will also tolerate light shade and regular feeding will enhance the flower size.
Supplied as an established plant in a 7-9cm pot, ready to move into a larger pot or plant straight out into the garden.
Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.
Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.
We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.
Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.
Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.
Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
