Silver Dollar Hydrangea
Silver Dollar Hydrangea is a beautiful panicle hydrangea known for its rounded clusters of creamy white blooms that age with soft touches of pink as the season goes on. It has a more compact size than many larger panicle hydrangeas, making it a great choice for flower beds, borders, foundation plantings, and smaller Southern yards.
This hydrangea blooms on new wood, which means it can be pruned in late winter or early spring without cutting off the season’s flowers. Silver Dollar Hydrangea is easy to grow, dependable, and a wonderful choice if you want big hydrangea blooms without needing a massive shrub.
