Hydrangea aspera ‘Hot Chocolate’

This distinctive Lacecap Hydrangea is a robust, hardy shrub which will flower right through summer, producing pretty blooms up to 30cm (12) across. The showy flowers have violet-blue hearts and soft pink outer florets, and contrast wonderfully with the rich chocolate foliage. These unusual leaves produce a second display in autumn as they fade to deep green followed by amber and golden shades. This large, deciduous shrub has a neat habit and is an ideal border filler, requiring minimal care – even in poorer soils. Height and spread: 3m (10′). Supplied in 9cm pots.
