Nikko Blue Hydrangea

Up to two months of blooms!

  • Rich green foliage adds multiple seasons of color
  • Long-lived blooms over an extended period
  • Blooms pink or blue, depending on soil acidity
  • Flowers much earlier than other hydrangeas
Large, 4-5 in., rounded panicles cover this mophead-type hydrangea from mid to late summer, beginning in June (much earlier than its contemporaries). The blooms are also long lived and give an extended performance in the garden. Plant displays dense flower clusters of either pink or blue, depending on the acidity of the soil. Mid green, ovate leaves create a fine backdrop for the colorful flower heads and remain fresh throughout the growing season. For best results, plant Nikko Blue in part shade to full sun. Zones 5-9
