Hydrangea Vanilla Fraise - Lollipop Standard Tree - 100-120cm tall

Very large bright creamy-white 'vanilla' coloured blooms in midsummer, aging to Strawberry Pink 'Fraise' through to burgundy red, not on a bush, but a small tree form - yes, one of our favourite Hydrangeas grown as a tree with a 'lollipop' head of branches and blooms above a clear stem. The blooms are held on the plant for several months before they transform to a deep pink-burgundy colour in the autumn. The transition from cream to pink and finally burgundy red, with the two colours on the same plant is simply breath-taking!

The colour makes a great addition to the garden and it blends wonderfully with all other colours and plants. Why not use 'Vanilla Fraise' in bouquets either fresh or dried to make a unique floral design? This is an easy to grow plant with reliable flowering and flower colour regardless of soil type or winter temperatures. Its Flower heads range from 15-30cm long and the tree itself reaches up to 2 metres tall if left unpruned. This jaw-dropping Hydranga works well in beds, borders and large containers, for the best quality cut back hard each spring to encourage more dense branching and a large number of flowers.

Supplied in approx. 10 litre containers.
