Enchantress® hydrangea

Hydrangea macrophylla ‘Monmar’

Enchantress® upstages other reblooming hydrangeas with its huge mophead flowers atop unique ruby-black stems.

Noteworthy CharacteristicsBlooming on old and new wood, clusters are up nine inches across; blue in acid soils, pink in alkaline soils. Her tall, dark stems are pencil thick, making excellent cut flowers in an arrangement or for drying. The stems are stunning against as the flowers as they fade to cream-splashed green. The ruby-colored stems look super all winter. Great in warmer climates and cold hardy to Zone 5.  A rounded habit, it will reach 3 to 5 feet tall and wide. Superb for a container, accent, specimen, or border. Deciduous.
