More about this plant
A large, upright and rounded panicle hydrangea growing roughly 6 to 9 feet tall and wide, with dark green foliage. Truly massive two toned blooms open white and transition to dark pink from mid summer into early fall, giving each panicle both colours at once. Grow it in part sun to sun on average loamy soil with average moisture; it adapts to many soil types. Prune in late winter or early spring, when it can also be trained into a small tree, and use it as a specimen, in mass plantings, along a border, or for fresh and dried cut flowers.
