Rough-leaved Hydrangea, Aspera Hydrangea
Hello, out of the 10 plants I ordered, only one was damaged, a stem was cut during transportation (Hydrangea aspera - Rough-leaved hydrangea). I put it in water hoping that the stem will grow roots so I can replant it. Thankfully, the pots were protected with plastic (preventing the soil from spilling out) and the stakes were there to try and support the poor plant, the cardboard was impeccable. For next time, I suggest using sturdy wooden or plastic crates to keep them upright along with all your other protective measures. Thank you for your attention.

Description
The Hydrangea aspera villosa 'Anthony Bullivant' is a variety of tall hydrangeas. The colours of the flowering are quite remarkable, a beautiful crown of pink flowers surrounds an umbel of intense purple flowers. The opulent and villous foliage that characterises this category of hydrangea brings a lovely exotic touch.
The aspera hydrangeas belong to the Hydrangea family, they are large bushy plants that can reach 2m (6 ft 7 in) in height and width. In these hydrangeas, the flower head is made up of small flowers arranged in an umbrella or flat corymb. The sterile flowers, larger in size, form a crown around the small fertile flowers, this particular arrangement is called grandmother's bonnet.
This bush likes a cool, semi-shaded environment and thrives in a bed of ericaceous soil in the company of other hydrangeas, hostas or camellias. The Hydrangea aspera villosa 'Anthony Bullivant' is perfect for adding colour to a shady area, the colours of its flowering will have the effect of a little oasis of light.

Planting and care
When planting the hydrangea aspera villosa 'Anthony Bullivant', choose a spot that is partially shaded or gently sunny. If your soil is very chalky, prepare the soil by mixing garden soil, leaf compost, and ericaceous soil. This variety usually grows well in deep, well-drained soil that remains moist in summer. Adding well-rotted manure or compost will help it thrive. It is essential to water the plant abundantly during planting and the first two years after planting. It is also recommended to water it several times during the summer in case of prolonged drought. Stop watering after September, and in cold regions, protect the base with a mulch of dead leaves.
Note that this variety of hydrangea is not suitable for container cultivation. It will grow best when planted directly into the ground.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
