Description
Pee Gee Hydrangea enlivens your landscape with a continuous cascade of voluminous flower clusters that transform in color—from a pristine, creamy white at first blush to a soft, blush pink as the season unfolds. This exceptional panicle hydrangea is renowned for its uniform, mounded habit, making it a perfect focal point in mixed shrub borders, mass plantings, or as a striking specimen in containers. Its lush, dark green foliage provides a refined backdrop that accentuates the evolving hues of the blooms—a transformation enhanced when grown in rich, moist, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic pH (around 5.5–6.5).
