Hydrangea macrophylla HoKo™ Midnight Pearl

Striking picotee blooms against near-black foliage

Midnight Pearl adds a touch of romance to the garden with its distinctive white blooms, each edged in a delicate picotee of red. These elegant flowers stand out beautifully against deep green foliage so rich in color it appears almost black. With its compact habit, strong stems, and sturdy blooms, Midnight Pearl is a reliable choice for containers or garden beds alike. It also adds an extra nuance in floral arrangements, offering extended vase life and a truly unique color combination.
