Hydrangea Serrata ‘Daredevil’

This unusual variety adds extra drama to the ordinary form, featuring brightly coloured flowers set against contrasting dark purple foliage. From July to September, Hydrangea serrata ‘Daredevil’ bears masses of flat, lace-cap flowers with vivid, rosy-pink florets. The toothed leaves emerge bronze-green, turning purple, almost black, as they mature, providing a dramatic background to the bright flowers. As autumn arrives, the dark foliage takes on fiery red shades. Hydrangea serrata ‘Daredevil’ makes an excellent foundation shrub for a mixed border or woodland setting in light shade, providing a long season of interest with its combination of flowers and foliage colour. Please note that flower colour may alter according to soil pH. Height: 80cm (31in). Spread: 120cm (47in).
