Comments:
A recent selection with all the beauty of larger-growing panicle hydrangeas but in a compact package. Instead of an 8-10’ shrub, this selection typically stays only 3-5’ tall and 2-4’ wide. The florific nature of this dwarf are exceptional as well. It is an early bloomer that flowers on new wood (so prune in spring if necessary) producing upright white panicles that fade to pink-red as summer progresses. Use in a border, showy specimen of foundation planting. Early flowers extend the typical hydrangea season.
