Game Changer Pink Hydrangea is a compact deciduous shrub with an extended bloom and dark green leaves. The large lacecap flower clusters bloom on new wood and are a combination of large and tiny flowers with color that depends on the soil PH - acidic soils produce blue while alkaline soils produce pink. The flowers attract pollinators and bloom from late spring all the way into fall. Best bloom in partial sun and rich, moist well-drained soils. The Game Changer series is the first series to offer daylength neutrality and no chill requirement for flowering.
