Seaside Serenade® Newport Hydrangea
Hydrangea macrophylla 'HORTMANI' PP #28,085
Newport Hydrangea is a compact reblooming deciduous shrub with serrated dark green leaves. Its abundant large-flowered mophead panicles bloom throughout summer with color that depends on the soil PH - blue-violet in acidic soils, and deep pink tones in alkaline soils- attracting butterflies and pollinators. Best bloom in partial sun and rich, moist well-drained soils. The Seaside Serenade series has longer lasting blooms and extra sturdy stems.
