The very small fertile flowers are naturally hidden. The flowers renew themselves all summer long. the shrub simultaneously carries panicles of all three shades.The flower stems are strong and stay well upright, without dropping due to the weight of the panicles in full bloom.The heads can be used as cut or dried flowers. In autumn, the foliage turns from yellow to purple red. Trophies: Silver Medal at PLANTARIUM 2013 (Boskoop - Netherlands)

A compact novelty with evolving colours Magical Vesuvio is a handsome novelty of Hydrangea paniculata with evolving colours. The panicles carry sterile and fertile flowers. Readily flowering, its strongly cone-shaped panicles change during the summer from white to dark red. Its compact shape will grow no higher and wider than 1.5 m and is thus ideal for boxes, small gardens or flowering hedges.

A very early white and a summery red!Prim'Red® has been selected for its remarkable precocity and its flower colours that evolve through the season. At the end of May or the beginning of June, according to the region, the flowers open to a creamy white which very rapidly, in two or three weeks, turns pink then red. This radiant colour remains for a long time, into July and August, sustaining the interest of the plant in comparison to typical paniculata like Dahrumas, which have a tendency to fade quickly.The large panicles are elegant, containing both sterile flowers that are pink to bright red, and fertile flowers, which are bright red (except for the stamens). Prim?Red® forms a small shrub up to 1.5 m with upright stems that branch freely and naturally. Given its precocity, pruning should be light, so as not to restrict its flowering. Better still would be a simple tidying-up.
