Bombshell Hydrangea

The Bombshell Hydrangea is a miniature version of the PG Hydrangea, perfect for smaller spaces where months of flower on an easy plant are needed. It is cold-hardy even in zone 3, where most other hydrangeas won’t grow, and its white flowers begin to appear in mid-summer, when other shrubs are stopping flowering. They continue to grow and remain on the plant, turning first pale pink, and later, in the colder days, turning red. This plant brings color and interest for months, yet it is so easy to grow it takes care of itself. It grows just 3 feet tall, so it fits anywhere. Plant one in a smaller garden, or a group in a larger bed. Use it in planters and pots, or as an edging plant along a bed, path or driveway.

• Rounded globes of flowers in white, turning pink and red
• Perfect miniature of the classic PG hydrangea
• Fast-growing and just 3 feet tall
• Very cold-hardy where other hydrangeas won’t grow
• Thrives in ordinary soil in sun or shade

Plant the Bombshell Hydrangea is full sun or partial shade in cooler states, and in partial to light full-shade in warmer areas. It grows well in any garden soil, and only needs a quick trim once a year in early spring. It has no pests or diseases, and it needs almost nothing from you to thrive and grow, bringing lots of interest exactly when other plants have stopped flowering. In containers use a regular potting soil, and water when the top inch of soil has become dry. Always have drainage holes in your pots and planter boxes.
