Elizabeth Ashley Hydrangea, or Hydrangea mac. Elizabeth Ashley is a dense, reblooming variety of hydrangea with mammoth, long-lasting globes of floriferous flowers that bloom from May through September. Reaching to heights of 3 to 4 feet with a spread of 3 to 4 feet, the flowers of this exciting hydrangea are bright shades of pink or blue, depending on the pH of the soil where they are planted. To offset these colorful blooms, the Elizabeth Ashley Hydrangea has a vibrant bed of deep-green foliage. As the flowers of Elizabeth Ashley mature, the flowers take on hints of green.
This stunning hydrangea is sure to be a favorite in your container or garden. Created to honor the memory of the grower’s child, who was tragically killed by a drunk driver, the Elizabeth Ashley Hydrangea honors the same vibrancy and zest for life as its namesake. It is a rounded variety with a clean, symmetrical habit. They are season-long bloomers, with new flowers maturing and blooming each month. Hydrangeas make excellent cut flowers and are a favorite of growers and florists, as they have a long vase life.
Elizabeth Ashley Hydrangea Care
The low-maintenance Elizabeth Ashley Hydrangea thrives in full sun to partial shade. It should be watered regularly until established, about an inch of water per week. You should feed your hydrangeas yearly with a time-release fertilizer.
This variety grows on both old and new wood and requires minimal pruning. If you would like to prune your hydrangeas for size or shape, it is best to do it after they bloom in late summer.
Elizabeth Ashley Hydrangea Spacing
The Elizabeth Ashley Hydrangea can be incorporated into arrangements and bouquets to provide splashes of color, layers, and dimension. They are a focal point planted in shady, compact spaces, or in pots and containers. Hydrangeas need adequate air flow and should be spaced 3 feet apart center to center.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
