Description
Hydrangea 'Little Love' lives up to its name with charm to spare and blooms that truly earn a second glance. This compact panicled hydrangea forms a graceful mound of lush green foliage, crowned with perfectly rounded flower heads that change colour as the season unfolds. The blooms begin a soft green, mellow into creamy tones, and finally blush the faintest pink as autumn draws near—like a slow romantic waltz through summer’s palette. Hydrangea 'Little Love' is an ideal choice for smaller gardens, terraces, or patio pots, bringing a touch of quiet elegance wherever it’s placed. Despite its compact stature, the flowering performance is anything but modest.
Hydrangea paniculata 'Little Love' has all the qualities gardeners appreciate—easy to grow, long-flowering, and delightfully low-maintenance. It flourishes in full sun or partial shade and simply asks for well-drained soil and a touch of care in spring to reward you with months of blooms. The sturdy stems of Hydrangea 'Little Love'hold the flower heads upright even after heavy rain, keeping everything looking neat and composed. Whether planted solo in a pot or grouped in a border, Hydrangea 'Little Love' has a knack for turning small spaces into showpieces. It’s the perfect reminder that sometimes, the greatest affection comes from the smallest gestures—and in this case, a perfectly formed flower.

Useful information
-
Soak the Hydrangea 'Little Love' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting
Plant your "Panicled hydrangea" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost within a week of delivery and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed. Some varieties are a length of root which should be planted lengthways and shallowly (1-2cm deep).
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
