Fresh colors against winter tears

When it's cold outside, it's time for colorful freshness and shapes. Hardly any other plant is better suited for this than the hydrangea.

The varied houseplant shines from January with its fluffy flowers and fills the home with a touch of color and a light scent.

Before the days get longer and spring comes, the room hydrangea with its voluminous umbel brings cheerfulness into its own four walls. Long before spring begins, the hydrangea begins to bloom. Not only does she surprise you with her unicoloured colors, but also with her changing color dress - from pink to dark green or from crème to white and then to light green.

The hydrangea becomes a miracle weapon against Tristesse and creates in no time a varied look without completely redesigning the interior. The effect of the early-flowering houseplant as a solostar is especially good against contrasty backgrounds to advantage. For a completely natural appearance, the houseplant is planted in a terracotta pot in a "used" look and the visible soil is covered with moss. So it fits indoor well into a setting that gives the feeling of an outdoor wilderness.

Easy-care room beauty

The room hydrangea is a slightly satisfied guest. He prefers a light but not sunny place at room temperature and a small bath once or twice a week to provide sufficient water . However, a permanent foot bath does not like the beauty of the room, and so excess water should be poured off after half an hour so that the roots do not suffer from oxygen deficiency. Every two weeks, the hydrangea also enjoys some ornamental plant food.
