Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Hydrangea macrophylla Next Generation 'Red Sensation' is a dwarf bigleaf hydrangea to just 2-3 feet high with deep pink to rosy red mophead flowers. It is a rebloomer that will flower on both old and new wood. Though due to its compact size you'll probably never have to trim it. Great for small spaces and containers.

Large mopheads emerge an attractive light red-rose and age to purplish-red, a rebloomer, so the flowers are produced spring to fall against a background of shiny green leaves on this wonderful compact (2-3't x 3-5'w) shrub; absolutely perfect for container or foundation; notable for its disease resistance as well.

By: Forestfarm

A new Mophead Hydrangea that blooms on new as well as old wood, making it a better choice for northern gardens. Large trusses of florets are borne all season long, rosy pink in hue if the soil ph is 6 or higher, more lavender to blue if soil pH is lower, as the picture here displays. Cooler temperatures will deepen the flower color. Grows 24-36" tall and 36-60" wide.
