Hydrangea serr. 'Preziosa'

Hydrangea serrata 'Preziosa' is actually a hybrid, a cross between a macrophylla and serrata species. With its almost spherical light pink flower bulbs with beautiful yellow and yellow-pink shades and an almost lilac amethyst-like color palette when it finishes flowering, it is a real maverick. The leaves also play a special play of colours, first they are tinted red purple, later dark green, and in autumn again fiery red. This special serrata hydrangea likes a spot in filtered sunlight or partial shade. it prefers a slightly acidic moist soil, is fairly hardy, attracts butterflies and bees. Can also be planted on the coast, sea wind tolerant.
