Hydrangea macrophylla Magical® Garnet
We know you will love the long lasting, strong flowers of the Everlasting series with their variety of colors, handsome foliage, and long-lasting flowers. As the flowers age, they change from one exciting color to the next. You will enjoy many colors at one time as each flower lasts for months. Each stem is a bouquet, and even a young plant will give you months of blooming enjoyment. Everlasting Garnet is covered in saturated, gem colored flowers on a compact and sturdy garden plant. Blooms are supported by thick, upright stems emerge bright, reddish-pink or blue, depending on the soil acidity, fade to a deeper pink with green highlights, and then finally age to bright lime green with pink edges. As the flowers age and change colors, they last for weeks on the plants, in the garden, and as a cut flower in a vase on your breakfast table.
