[meta_description] => An exciting thing is happening in the world of Australian plants. Wild species that have tantalised gardeners in the past are now being improved to create a diverse palette of new varieties that offer all kinds of advantages. In particular, the necessity for water-wise, low maintenance gardens has inspired interest in plants that can be used as ground covers that will not only suppress weeds and erosion but also look fantastic.

Plant description
Hydrangea Nobuko is a hardy deciduous shrub with a self branching habit, making it a compact grower. It has lovely large heads of flowers through spring and summer, that are purple and white bicoloured.
Hydrangeas are tough, adaptable plants that do best in moist, well drained, humus rich soil. Plant in a position with dappled shade, or sun that has protection from the hottest part of the day. Hydrangeas can be pruned when they lose their leaves, removing old or dead wood, and shaping the plant.
