The beautiful hydrangea ‘ Rembrandt Dolce Chic Blue ‘ is well known for its vivid blue flowers, which bloom in abundance from mid-summer to autumn, creating a gorgeous and vibrant display of colour in any outdoor area.

The blooms are especially well-known for their deep, rich blue colour, which varies in intensity based on the soil’s pH. Capable of changing colour, this hydrangea, when planted in more acidic soils, may intensify in its blue colouration, while more alkaline soils may cause the flowers to take on a pinkish tint, creating a beautiful and unique colour palette depending on your garden.

This plant is ideal if you fancy experimenting with soil management, as it provides a fun way for gardeners to choose how their hydrangeas display colour.

Normally retailing for £27.99, this hydrangea offers an average height and width of 1.2 metres. It is a medium-sized shrub that makes a great option for mixed borders, accent plantings in ornamental gardens, and container gardening on decks and patios. This specimen can withstand full sun, though it prefers partial shade, meaning it will be quite at home no matter where you plant its roots.

Love Island’s Shakira and Harry came second in the final on Monday night, despite their tumultuous romance in the villa, with the star jokingly hitting out at him in a new post

Love Island only just ended on Monday night, with Toni and Cach coming out on top as winners after a tough few weeks. Shakira and Harry were runners-up and Yas and Jamie came in third place, much to the delight of fans at home who insisted they ‘voted for the right people’.

Shakira and Harry had a tumultuous time in the villa, with the two gravitating towards each other before his head was turned by Helena. However, they soon found their way back to each other and quickly became a fan-favourite couple despite his ‘bad boy’ antics that resulted in many rows.

While he insisted he would gladly move to Burnley to be with the gorgeous star, some fear their romance might already be on the rocks after she shared a snap of Harry as a cockroach. It comes after reports of all the celebrities rumoured to be joining BBC Strictly Come Dancing 2025.

On her Instagram Stories, she re-posted a meme made by Love Island, which featured two cartoon cockroaches with Harrison ad Harry’s heads superimposed onto it, with a first prize medal on Harrison and a second place medal on Harry.

The edit comes after Shakira cried about them in an emotional moment in the villa. The moment was shared in the same cockroach post and saw her in tears as she yelled out: “That absolute little ant. Like, he stood up there a f***ing cockroach and cockroach number two’s stood next to him,” referring to Harry.

Shakira shared the picture of the cockroaches and joked: “Second place suits you.” In the original post, which was shared two weeks ago, fans rushed to side with Shakira.

“We are with you Shakira,” one person wrote, and another posted: “Toni and Shakira are the best couple in there.” One fan commented: “I wish she knew how loved she is on the outside!!!!”

During the live final, host Maya Jama wasted no time in telling runners-up Shakira and Harry what she really thought of their romance.

The presenter gave her true thoughts on the pair, having called out Harry for his behaviour towards Helena and others in a previous episode.

Harry shared his shock though, as Maya admitted this time it felt different between them. Having seen clips of them together for the final week and the final day, she said watching them she could see it was genuine.

She shared: “Well you both look very happy with each other. It’s nice to see you two together in the final.

“You both look really… I dunno. The last couple of days I’ve been watching you like, this is cute. This is cute.”
