Description

Lovely new introduction, Hydrangea macrophylla 'Hanabi Rose' is similar to the more familiar Hydrangea macrophylla 'Hanabi' except that this has spectacular rose-pink flowers, rather than the usual white. The flowers are on long stalks and look a little like miniature fireworks exploding! A fine choice of shrub for a flowering border, this Hydrangea can also be grown well in a large container or pot.
