Spirit II Hydrangea is a compact reblooming native deciduous shrub with glossy serrated dark green leaves and sturdy stems that do not flop. The dense clusters bloom on new wood and open deep pink before fading to an attractive green as they mature, coming in waves throughout summer and into fall. These flowers are attractive to butterflies and pollinators. Best bloom in partial sun and rich, moist well-drained soils. Spirit II is self cleaning.
