What is hydrangea?
The plant belongs to the dicotyledonous class, the hydrangea family. International scientific name - Hydrangea L. It is characterized by great species diversity. In nature, it grows in the form of shrubs, small trees or vines. Some species are evergreen, but most, including cultivated species, are deciduous.
Hydrangea blooms from early spring to October - November. Wild species mostly have white flowers. However, cultivated varieties grown for ornamental purposes may have blue, pink, red and lilac blossoms. Interestingly, color is directly related to the pH (hydrogen content) in the soil, which allows cultivators to plan the shades of flowers in advance.
Where does hydrangea live in the wild?
The main area of distribution of hydrangeas is South and East Asia, North and South America. Several species are native to the Russian Far East. Optimal growing conditions are open, sunny places. However, the plant does not like direct sunlight. Therefore, it is recommended to choose semi-shaded areas.
For cultivation, only fertile soil is used. Before planting, it is thoroughly treated with mineral and organic fertilizers. For irrigation, use soft (optimal option 1 rain) water in large volumes. For one shrub (for decorative purposes, trees and vines are not used), at least two buckets are spent weekly.
Is it true that hydrangea is poisonous?
Indeed, all parts of the plant contain cyanogenic glycosides in small doses. However, the harmful effect of these substances is possible only with direct ingestion into the gastrointestinal tract. We do not think that any adult would come up with the idea to taste flowers from a bouquet of hydrangeas. In the wild, cases of poisoning are practically not observed, since the appearance of the shrub does not attract animals. However, we warn those who have small children and / or pets about the possible danger.
