Hydrangea paniculata 'Kolmakilima' (PP#29 853)
Common name
Panicle Hydrangea ‘Moonrock™’
Type
Ornamental shrub
Family
Hydrangeaceae
Hydrangea paniculata 'Lavalamp Moonrock' is a well-structured, bushy hydrangea, remarkable for its very dense cream-white inflorescences with a lime green heart, evoking the phosphorescent hue of a Moonrock lamp. Its erect panicles, held above dark green foliage, create an immediate visual impact, whether in mass plantings, as a specimen, or in a contemporary landscape design. It maintains a beautiful rounded shape without rigorous pruning and develops an abundant and prolonged bloom from mid to late summer. Hardy, reliable, and very easy to grow, it adapts to a wide variety of well-drained soils, in full sun or partial shade. 'Moonrock' combines modernity, floriferousness, and vegetative balance in an easy-to-integrate format.
