Family Hydrangeaceae

Hydrangea macrophylla ‘Frill Ride’ is a refined shrub hydrangea, prized for its flat, lacecap-type inflorescences with finely fringed sterile florets, offering a delicate and very elegant texture. The wavy, light peripheral florets frame a discreet fertile center, creating an airy and sophisticated effect in the garden. The coloration varies from pink to blue depending on the soil pH, adding evolving interest throughout the season. Its habit is naturally spreading, wider than tall, forming a flexible and harmonious silhouette ideal for sheltered beds, neat borders, and container cultivation. The ample, textured dark green deciduous foliage highlights the delicacy of the bloom. ‘Frill Ride’ stands out for its romantic style, its decorative flowering, and its very elaborate appearance.
