Variegated Hydrangea


Variegated Hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla (Hortensia))

They have a reputation for reverting and not flowering well but they still look cool. Someone sent me a cutting of Mariesii Variegata at the end of last summer and told me it was stable and flowered well, hope they're right!

This one I would like to have in my collection. I read about it, but did not see it anywhere around.

I've not seen this one offered for sale at any nurseries where I live either. The only variegated one I see offered for sale anywhere is 'Lemon Wave' and I've only seen that once or twice. The variegation looks nice on it but we grew them at the wholesale nursery I worked for and they weren't very stable and didn't flower well. Also sensitive to cold, at least here anyways. Still looks nice though, they remind me of hostas.
