early rosa at Lowes

9 years ago

Hi all,

Happy Spring. I picked up a hydrangea labeled early rosa today at Lowes (on clearance). It is a nice size, has some finished blooms but still sporting some cauliflower. I searched the web for this and found one reference in the UK. Anyone know anything about this one?

Most of the "earlies" are assorted Dutch breeds.

Probably requires the same treatment as any old-wood bloomer. As when planting anything outside (especially zone 6b) a heavily sheltered environment (from winter & late freezes) helps at first.
