Hydrangea macrophylla Seaside Serenade® Hamptons
Billowy soft pink blooms
Named after one of New York's popular seaside resorts, this hydrangea will fit right in. A robust grower, dark coppery leaves serve as the perfect foil for the enchanting flowers to come. Soft-pink, billowy blooms with a touch of green are high lighted with darker shades of pink for a lacy effect. As the flowers mature, the pink ages to lavender, still with a darker edge. Great for cuts, the strong stems and hard flowers will persist for months in the garden. A very unique selection!
This plant is sold exclusively in the Monrovia® Plant Collection.
