Positive hortensia On Jul 2, 2006, hortensia from Langley, BC, BC (Zone 8b) wrote:

a little slow to get started, this plant has become a favourite because of its thornlessness -- if I had to weed amongst one of the thornier brutes in it's current positon, I would doubtless be more negative.

It gets a bit of blackspot, but not in any serious way, and I don't spray at all. It flowers in trusses, those of the fall being much larger in the way of hybrid musks, though the cross is given as Marchenland x Peace.
