About this plant
Hydrangea is a deciduous flowering shrub from Japan, sold as Hydrangea macrophylla. It produces large, rounded flower heads made up of many small florets, here in pink, above broad, serrated green leaves. In acidic soil the flowers of many varieties turn bluer; in alkaline soil they stay pink.
Hydrangeas are cool-climate shrubs and are challenging long-term in Dubai. Treat a flowering hydrangea as a seasonal plant that gives several weeks of color, best from November to April. It is very thirsty and wilts quickly in heat or dry AC air, so it needs frequent watering and bright, indirect light. Outdoor summer heat and sun will scorch it, and the alkaline local water can yellow the leaves.
It works on dining tables, entrance consoles, bright windows and shaded patios in winter, and is a popular gift. We offer it at around 30–40 cm in pink, in a nursery or ceramic pot.

Care Guide for Dubai Homes
How to keep Hydrangea healthy through the Dubai year.
Light
Bright, indirect light; outdoors only in shade during the cooler months. Keep it out of harsh direct afternoon sun in summer.
Watering
Every 1–2 days in warm weather, keeping the soil evenly moist; never let it dry out. Water when the top 2 to 3 cm of soil feels dry, empty the saucer afterwards, and check the soil before you water: AC slows how fast the plant uses water.
Care notes
Soil: Rich, moisture-retentive potting mix. Feeding: Balanced liquid feed every 2–3 weeks while flowering. Common mistake: Letting it dry out, which causes the flower heads to wilt and brown. Where it works: Dining tables, entrance consoles, bright windows and shaded winter patios.
AC and air flow
Keep it at least 1 metre from AC vents. Cold air blowing straight onto the leaves dries the edges.
Cleaning the leaves
Dust settles quickly in Dubai homes. Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth every few weeks so they keep taking in light.
Feeding and repotting
Feed once a month from March to October. Repot every 2 years into a pot one size up, or book a Plant Doctor visit and we do it for you.
Pets
Listed by the ASPCA as toxic to cats, dogs and horses (cyanogenic glycoside; can cause vomiting, depression and diarrhea).
