- Compact Habit
- Excellent Container Presentation
- Large Flowers + Fall Foliage
- Description
What sets Gatsby Glow Ball oakleaf hydrangea apart from the rest? Well, it’s smaller than ‘Ruby Slippers’, faster growing than ‘Munchkin’, and is denser yet more dwarf than ‘Snow Queen’. Large, dense lacecap flowers age to pink, and high-quality foliage develops the dramatic fall color foliage that makes the species so beloved. But it’s the truly exceptional container presentation that’s going to delight growers, retailers, and consumers– you have to see it to believe just what an improvement it is. Another superb plant from Dr. Tom Ranney of NCSU and his team.
