🌸 Hydrangea ‘Magical Revolution’ – Care Guide

Hydrangea macrophylla ‘Magical Revolution’ is a compact, reblooming hydrangea known for its extra-long flowering period, exceptional color changes, and robust, sturdy stems. This mophead variety blooms in rich blues, pinks, purples, or greens, often transforming shades multiple times as the season progresses—truly magical!

☀️ Light

• Prefers partial shade to morning sun + afternoon shade.

• In cooler climates, it tolerates more sun.

• Too much direct sun (especially in hot zones) can scorch leaves or shorten bloom life.

💧 Watering

• Likes consistently moist, well-drained soil.

• Water deeply 2–3 times/week in dry periods.

• Mulch around the base to retain moisture and cool the roots.

🌱 Soil

• Performs best in rich, humus-filled soil.

• Soil pH affects flower color:

  • Acidic (pH < 6) = Blue to purple flowers

  • Neutral to alkaline (pH > 6.5) = Pink to red flowers

• Add aluminum sulfate for blue, lime for pink.

💦 Humidity

• Prefers moderate humidity.

• Ensure good airflow to avoid fungal issues in damp conditions.

🌡️ Temperature

• Hardy in USDA zones 5–9.

• Protect from late spring frosts, which may damage new buds.

🍃 Fertilizer

• Apply a balanced fertilizer in spring (e.g., 10-10-10).

• Feed again after first bloom to support reblooming cycle.

• Avoid overfeeding—too much nitrogen leads to more leaves, fewer blooms.

✂️ Pruning

• Magical Revolution blooms on both old and new wood.

• Prune lightly after first flowering to encourage reblooming.

• Avoid heavy spring pruning—may remove old wood flower buds.

✨ Special Features

• Compact, bushy habit: 50–80 cm tall and wide.

• Strong stems = no flopping blooms.

• Blooms continuously from early summer to fall, shifting colors with time.

• Excellent for pots, small gardens, borders, and cut flowers.

✅ Styling & Display Tips

• Perfect for containers, balconies, patios, or mass planting.

• Plant with hostas or ferns for a lush underplanting.

• Combine blue- and pink-blooming plants for dramatic contrast.

⚠️ Toxicity

• Mildly toxic if ingested (leaves and flowers).

• Keep out of reach of pets and small children.
