No need to provide stakes or support for this sturdy beauty. Leave some of the magnificent panicle blooms to ornament the shrub and add winter interest, too. Allow her to grace your yard well into fall and even winter. Use this flowering shrub as the Queen of your mid-summer garden. But those full-sized blooms are large enough to make a big impact! They start blooming at a time when other flowers have come and gone. With a rounded growth habit, Strawberry Sundae stays small for modern gardens. If you choose to leave the blooms on the shrub, you'll enjoy the fantastic flower color that lasts well into fall. You'll have armloads of blooms to bring indoors for stylish dried flower arrangements. The color finally deepens into a luscious strawberry red.

New, cone-shaped flowers emerge creamy white in mid-summer, then change to pink as the cool nights roll around in fall. You and your neighbors will watch in amazement as the showy blooms go through a spectacular color change. With a rounded, compact habit, this gorgeous Hydrangea fits beautifully in small space gardens and makes a lovely accent in larger landscapes. Need a perfect pop of color in small yards or as a Thriller in large decorative containers?
