Family Hydrangeaceae

Hydrangea paniculata ‘Lavender Flare’ is a highly decorative shrub hydrangea, valued for the remarkable evolution of its blooms and its strong, well-balanced habit. This variety stands out for its large, dense conical panicles, which open creamy white before gradually turning pink and then rosy lavender shades at the end of the season. Its overall habit is upright, dense, and structured, with a silhouette that is clearly taller than it is wide, making it an excellent choice for intermediate beds, flowering hedges, and specimen plantings. Like all Hydrangea paniculata, ‘Lavender Flare’ blooms on new wood, ensuring reliable and abundant flowering every summer, even after harsh winters. The medium green deciduous foliage elegantly highlights the chromatic transformation of the flowers and extends ornamental interest until autumn. Robust, luminous, and versatile, it easily integrates into both classic and contemporary gardens.
