Plant of the month for June

Hydrangeas are easy-to-grow deciduous shrubs known for their spectacular flat, dome or cone shaped flower heads that bloom from mid-summer through to autumn. They are perfect for adding vibrancy to garden borders, filling shady spots, and are also excellent cut flowers for fresh and dried arrangements. They are bold shrubs that brighten up porches, decking and patio areas. Their colours range from dazzling blues, pinks, and purples to crisp whites and deep reds. Plus their versatility in sun and shade make them must-have shrubs for every garden. It's no surprise they are Lakeside's plant of the month for June.
