Hydrangea Mount Fuji

Reminiscent of snow-capped peaks, this compact deciduous shrub produces dense, conical flower clusters from mid-Summer through Autumn. The showy panicles emerge as pristine, luminous white in July before gradually maturing into soft shades of pink and rose-red as the season cools. Held upright on strong, sturdy stems that resist drooping even in rainy weather, the long-lasting blooms make an exceptional statement in small gardens, mixed borders, or patio containers. Easy to grow and low-maintenance, it flowers reliably on new wood each year, providing reliable late-season structure, nectar for pollinators, and excellent material for fresh or dried floral arrangements.
