Hydrangea - Pinky Winky™

Pinky Winky™ Hydrangea, Hydrangea paniculata 'DVPpinky' (PP16,166), has stonishingly large blossoms that grow up to 14" in length. Each floret has nearly double the petals of other hydrangeas, giving the plant a fuller bodied look. The thick stems support the large blossoms. The flower heads continue to grow throughout the season and as the older flowers turn dark pink the new flowers continue to emerge white. The effect is stunning. This is truly a remarkable plant for the summer and autumn landscape. Used either in the back or middle of a container and is usually a taller item that adds height and drama to the container. Pinky Winky prefers good, loamy soil, but is adaptable to many soils, and moderate moisture is required. It can be easily maintained as a smaller plant or trained into a small tree. This hydrangea blooms on new wood so it can be pruned in the fall or early spring. Pinky Winky is a deciduous shrub with a moderate to fast growth habit which grows 6-8 feet in height and width and prefers full sun. ... details
