Hydrangea Preziosa is a deciduous shrub with a tendancy to bear bronze coloured leaves in its younger age, before the regular colour of green forms as it grows older. The foliage will also gain a deep red tint in Autumn, therefore adding plenty of colour to proceedings. Forming in a clustered manner, the flowers are made up of a gorgeous pink colour which, when fully developed, is a very pleasing sight to look at. Hydrangea should be planted in moist, well-drained soil and kept in full sun at the best of times. If kept in full sunlight, watering should be done so that the soil is never dry to touch. However, if placed in dappled shade, regular watering should only take place in the first few weeks as it establishes itself.
