Cityline® Berlin Hydrangea

The Cityline® Berlin Hydrangea is the perfect bush for summer blooms in smaller gardens. It grows 1 or 2 feet tall, or sometimes a little taller, but the flower heads are full size, just like much larger mophead hydrangeas. It blooms all July and August, and even in fall the flowers only fade to an attractive green, remaining beautiful for further weeks. In neutral and alkaline soils the blooms are a wonderful Easter pink, and in acidic soil they become a sophisticated deep lilac, so wherever you grow it, this bush is beautiful.

• Full size Easter pink flowers in July and August
• Small bush ideal for planters and the front of beds
• Healthy leaves resistant to powdery mildew
• Flowers are attractive green tones in fall
• Sturdy plant with no flopping of the large flower heads

The Cityline® Berlin Hydrangea should be grown in partial shade, or in dappled shade or the shadow on the north side of a wall. It grows best in moist, well-drained soil, rich in organic material and watered regularly. This plant is not drought tolerant, but it is resistant to powdery mildew, which disfigures many hydrangea bushes in hot and humid summer conditions. It has no serious pests or diseases, and it needs little or no pruning, because it is naturally small, yet full of flower buds.
