From cream to pink to rich maroon, these huge flowerheads wow you
Find a special place for this thrilling new Fire and Ice™ Panicle Hydrangea. Fire and Ice changes bloom color every few weeks, creating a season-long play of hue that never ceases to fascinate. This ultra-compact hydrangea is just right for garden or large container, delighting with long wands of brilliant color.
The Fire and Ice Panicle Hydrangea blooms open cream-colored in early spring, standing out beautifully against the bright green foliage on plants 3 to 5 feet high and 3 to 4 feet wide. By midsummer blushes of pink have overtaken the florets, and soon the entire plume is a rich shade of cotton-candy pink. Then, beginning in late summer and continuing throughout autumn, the flowers acquire a deep, intense shade of magenta-burgundy. Stunning!
Best in part shade, Fire and Ice is the focal point of any setting. It's a good choice for the foundation or along the driveway, where its bloom changes can be followed on a daily basis, but it also works well in border and woodland garden. Truly unique, it deserves a place of honor.
