Proven Winner. New hydrangea with lacy flowers that blooms a month earlier than other varieties. Flowers emerge as white but turn to a vivid dark pink.
Clusters of deep pink flowers cover the plant in early summer. Golden foliage with red/bronze/orange new growth. Compact and spreading form. Fall color is red to orange to purple.
2004 Hosta of the Year. Enormous golden-chartreuse leaves with the tiniest hint of an edge in pale white. Pale lavender flowers in August. The substance is in the color, the sum is its overall charm.
