We spoke with our flower farm today about the antique hydrangea and when it might be available and unfortunately we are probably going to be looking at sometime after the first of August before the antique hydrangea will be available.
It has been unseasonably cold and foggy at our flower farms in California which has caused their hydrangea to bloom MUCH slower than in years past. Their production of blue and white hydrangea is just beginning to bloom and hopefully in the next few weeks production will pick up. The antique coloration of the hydrangea comes as the blooms age on the stems. Once bloomed, the hydrangea require about an additional 4 to 6 weeks on the plant to develop their ‘antique’ coloration.
We are really hoping that Mother Nature cooperates and provides us with some warmer weather so that our California hydrangea farms will begin producing soon.
Just so you know, the white hydrangea and blue hydrangea are readily available out of South America.
If you have any questions about antique hydrangea or any of our other varieties of wholesale flowers, please give us a call at 1-888-297-3000.
