The story

First to bloom, last to quit.

White flower cones open weeks before most panicle hydrangeas, then blush pink and turn deep rosy red as summer goes on. Compact enough for a foundation bed.

Light

Full sun for the best color; part shade in hot regions.

Water

Water weekly the first year and in summer heat.

Planting

Plant in spring or fall with the root ball level with the soil.

An early start and a long color run, in a small size.
