Hydrangea ‘Burning Hot’

This stunning introduction is the darkest flowered hydrangea we’ve ever seen! Hydrangea ‘Burning Hot’ bears full, round heads of incredibly deep, wine-red blooms. Each petal is large and intensely saturated with colour, making ‘Burning Hot’ very distinctive from other dark varieties. In autumn the foliage takes on red tints, associating beautifully with the flower heads.

Mophead hydrangeas flower for many weeks over the summer and their skeletal flowerheads offer additional interest in winter. ‘Burning Hot’ also adds a unique colour to indoor arrangements, and is exceptionally long-lasting in a vase. With a compact habit, this deciduous shrub is perfect for lightly shaded borders and makes an elegant patio plant. Pair it with white flowers for a dramatic contrast. Height and spread: 1m (39in).
