Hydrangea Bonfire

Hydrangea ‘Bonfire’ is a vibrant and resilient panicle hydrangea that brings evolving colour and strong structure to your garden. From pale green buds, the cones of blooms open in creamy white, shift through soft pinks and corals, and finally deepen into rich dusky red-pink hues as summer progresses. 

Standing on upright, sturdy stems above a backdrop of fresh green foliage, it makes a bold statement through July to September and beyond. 

As a bare-root shrub, it offers long-term value: once established it’s hardy down to around –30 °C and will settle into a neat, mound-forming habit in border or container settings. 

Whether you’re planting a feature shrub, accenting a patio, or adding seasonal blooms for cutting and drying, ‘Bonfire’ delivers lasting impact with minimal fuss.
