A Complete Analysis of the Biological Characteristics of Hydrangea
Hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla) originated in China and Japan. It prefers a warm, humid and semi-shaded environment. The optimum growing temperature for hydrangea is 18-28°C, and the winter temperature should not fall below 5°C. Flower bud differentiation requires 6-8 weeks at 5-7°C; a temperature of 20°C can promote flowering, and maintaining 16°C after the flowers appear can extend the flowering period. However, high temperatures make the flowers fade quickly. The potting soil of hydrangea should be kept moist, but it should not be watered too much; especially in the rainy season, pay attention to drainage to prevent root rot caused by waterlogging. In winter, indoor potted hydrangeas are best kept slightly dry.
