This wonderful well used and loved Hydrangea is one of the lace cap head types, named for their large, flat heads. 

Growth begins quickly at the beginning of the seasons and the plant puts on plenty of luscious bright green leaves, the flowers are then produced through summer.

The flower heads can be left over winter to add interest or trimmed back to tidy up the shrub.

 

In autumn the foliage has good colour and ranges through, yellow, orange and red.

Medium growing, hardy, deciduous shrub, growing to around 1.5M over 10 years
