A radiant garden with the autumn colors of Magical® hydrangeas

There’s something special about the transition from summer to autumn—the air smells fresher, the days get shorter, and nature evolves into a spectacle of warm hues. Magical hydrangeas perfectly capture the spirit of this magical time of year. They bloom for up to 150 days and change color three times, transforming your garden into a colorful autumn paradise!

Hydrangea colors are truly magical

During this enchanting fall season, Magical hydrangea flowers gradually change hue, to rich burgundy, deep purple, and even soft green and brown tones. It’s as if the flowers are telling their own story, a tale of natural metamorphosis that gives your garden a unique ambience.

What causes the color change in hydrangeas?

Magical hydrangea’s signature color change is a fascinating natural phenomenon. As days get shorter and temperatures drop, the hydrangea produces more anthocyanin, a pigment that brings out those deeper colors. This is why your garden looks slightly different every day.

Hydrangea care in autumn

Magical hydrangeas are relatively low maintenance but with a little care, your plant will continue to shine throughout autumn.

Keep the soil moist, especially during dry periods.

Early frost? Protect the plant with a layer of mulch or garden fleece. This keeps the roots warm and prevents damage.

After blooming, it’s ok to remove dead or damaged branches. Avoid heavy pruning, as many of the plants bloom on both new and old wood. If you prefer, you can wait until March to take out the pruning shears.
