Dark green foliage and exquisite, delicate lacecaps of large, white, sterile florets (fading to chartreuse as the season progresses) surrounding blue, fertile flowers, make this one of the most popular Hydrangeas in the garden when in full blossom. A sturdy performer in a fairly shaded bed in our woodland, it would perhaps be better grown if planted in brighter conditions than we currently provide. 6 ft.
these are seedlings: After waiting for more than four years for the first flowers of this exquisite form of a lovely species to blossom, we were rewarded last year by demure and elegant nodding pink-blushed buds opening to pure white flowers, held gracefully above handsome, finely cut foliage. For full sun or very light shade in any well-drained, humus-rich soil.
