It was awarded Gold medal at the 2015 HTA Awards, achieving the highest point’s score of all six gold medal winners in the shrubs and climbers category. The large lacecap flowers are very special because of the beautiful pink and white colouring, the size of the heads, and the amount of heads produced.

Hydrangea plants do not like having dry roots. The plant needs watering regularly, both in a pot and in the soil during warm periods. You should thereby try as much as possible to keep the flowers dry. If pot planted we would recommend you stand your pot on water dish and water from the base. Do not allow to dry out.
