Description
|
Popular deciduous shrub with large rounded clusters of deep-blue, mophead flowers that bloom repeatedly throughout the warm months on new growth. This selection is ideal for cut flower arrangements. The lush, dark green leaves that hold their color through the season are an added value. A excellent choice for foundation plantings, outdoor living areas or added to the border garden. Flower color is dependent on soil acidity.
